Iga Swiatek dominated Maria Sakkari to win the Indian Wells final 6-4 6-0 on Sunday and claim the title for a second time in the California desert.

In a rematch of the 2022 final, world number one Swiatek came out firing, building a 3-0 lead before Sakkari worked her way back into the set for 4-4.

But on her third set point, the Pole dragged Sakkari from one side of the court to the other before capturing the opener with a forehand winner.

Swiatek, who did not drop a set all tournament, dominated the second, crushing a running backhand for a 3-0 lead and then breaking serve for 4-0 as the outmatched Greek began to fade.

A backhand winner down the line put Swiatek a game away and the top seed sealed the win by breaking serve to love when Sakkari¡¯s forehand sailed wide on match point.

¡°It¡¯s an amazing thing to be standing here again,¡± Swiatek said during the trophy ceremony.

¡°Thank you for really making this feel like home. Every year that I come here I feel really positive vibes because of you. Thank you guys for coming and hopefully we¡¯re going to see each other next year.¡±

Swiatek is now 19-4 in her career finals and 8-2 at WTA 1000 level while ninth seed Sakkari now has a 2-8 record in finals.

¡°I¡¯m sorry I couldn¡¯t put up a better fight,¡± Sakkari told the crowd after the match lasted just over an hour.

¡°It was pretty quick for you guys but credit to Iga. You¡¯re an amazing player, very good person, incredible champion.

¡°You really do deserve the best. You and your team have created something incredible. I¡¯m really hoping we can play a lot more finals.¡±

Swiatek, a four-time Grand Slam champion, has now won a WTA leading 20 matches this season and has two titles after her triumph at the Qatar Open in February.

The 22-year-old will look to capture her second ¡°Sunshine Double¡± with a win at the Miami Open.
