World No. 1 Iga Swiatek of Poland earned her eighth title of the season by outlasting Croatian qualifier Donna Vekic 6-3, 3-6, 6-0 to win the San Diego Open on Sunday.

The final was Swiatek’s 64th match victory of the season, the most in a single season since Serena Williams finished 2013 with a whopping 78.

Swiatek won 31 of her 44 first-service points (70.4 percent), claimed 14 of 17 second-service points (82.3 percent) and broke Vekic’s serve four times in six opportunities.

Vekic, the 77th-ranked player in the world, had to wrap up her semifinal match earlier Sunday after it was postponed Saturday night due to rain. Vekic was trailing the third set 4-2 in that match but stormed back to stun American Danielle Collins 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (2).
