Fifth-seeded Belinda Bencic of Switzerland secured her 10th career title with a 6-2, 6-3 win over sixth-seeded Linda Noskova on Sunday in the final of the Toray Pan Pacific Open final in Tokyo.
Bencic recorded six aces and broke the serve of Noskova on three occasions to dispatch the native of the Czech Republic in 1 hour and 21 minutes. She previously reached the final of this tournament 10 years ago as an 18-year-old, losing to Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska.
Although Noskova was the fresher of the two given her previous two wins came via retirement and walkover, she was unable to sustain any momentum due in large part to the six double faults she committed.
