Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova beat Donna Vekic of Croatia 6-2 7-6(6) on Sunday to lift the German Open title and confirm her form on grass just over a week before the Grand Slam in London.
The 33-year-old Czech, who also beat Vekic en route to victory at the Miami Open this year, earned her 31st career title.
It is the first time Kvitova has won multiple titles in a single season since 2019 and she has now won 12 of her last 13 matches on grass dating back to her title run in Eastbourne last season."I have to say big congrats to Donna. You played amazing tennis. Not only in the final but the whole week. It was exhausting yesterday and today," she said.
She was too strong for the Croat in the first set, while the 26-year-old struggled with her forehand.
