February 19, 2007
Bangalore Open
Unseeded Russian Yaroslava Shvedova won her first WTA tour title on Sunday after defeating Italian top seed and last year's winner Mara Santangelo 6-4, 6-4 in the final.
Shvedova, ranked 143rd going into the tournament, maintained the form that helped her beat seventh-seeded Thai Tamarine Tanasugarn in the second round and second seed Sania Mirza in the quarter-finals.
