Elena Rybakina delivered a dominant performance to defeat Karolína Muchová in the final of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, winning 7-5, 6-1.
In addition to the title and prize money, the Kazakhstani player also received a new Porsche 911 Carrera S, a tradition of the tournament.
Match turns after tight first set
The opening set was closely contested, with both players exchanging breaks. After the score reached 5-5, however, Rybakina took control and closed out the set.
Her performance echoed her semifinal win over Mirra Andreeva, where she also surged late after an even start.
Second-set dominance
Rybakina carried her momentum into the second set, winning five consecutive games and leaving Muchová little room to respond. The Czech player managed to hold once, but Rybakina sealed the match on her first championship point in 1 hour, 18 minutes.
Another title in a strong season
The victory marks Rybakina’s 13th career title on the WTA Tour and her second of the season. She previously won the Australian Open earlier in 2026.
The Stuttgart tournament, first held in 1978, is known for awarding its champion a new Porsche each year. Rybakina also claimed the title in 2024, defeating Marta Kostyuk in the final.
