The world number three, seeking her third title of 2025 and the first since April, secured the initial set when Swiatek sent a forehand out of the court.

It was Pegula who got a break opportunity at 5-5, taking advantage of it with a powerful cross-court forehand. Pegula held her serve to seal her second grass-court title, following her victory in Berlin the previous year.
