Tennis: Laura Siegemund Wins WTA Bastad Title

Germany's Laura Siegemund clinched WTA title in Bastad after defeating Katerina Siniakova of the Czech Republic 7-5, 6-1 in Sunday's final. 
Siegemund, who made her main draw debut in Bastad back in 2010, first showed off her clay court prowess earlier in the season at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, where she defeated Simona Halep, Roberta Vinci, and Agnieszka Radwanska to reach her first WTA final as a qualifier. 
Set to make her Olympic debut at the Summer Games in Rio, Siegemund is projected to not only crack the Top 40, but also tentatively reach a career-high ranking of No.32, putting her in contention for a seed at the upcoming US Open.
