Little-known Slovakian Magdalena Rybarikova won her first WTA title after beating China's Li Na 6-0, 7-6 at the Edgbaston Classic on Sunday.
Seeded 13, the 20-year-old Rybarikova used her serve-and-volley game effectively early on against the fourth-seeded Li to breeze through the first set.
Rybarikova, ranked 38 places below Li, then ground out a close second set by winning the tie-break 7-2 for a victory that is likely to take the Slovakian to her highest ranking position.
Her previous best was 46 in February this year.
She was junior Wimbledon runner-up in 2006 but, after two attempts in the main draw, has yet to progress past the first round.
