The $250,000 Canadian Granby Tennis Championships were won by ninth-ranked Russian Daria Kasatkina, who defeated Australian Daria Savile 6-4, 6-4 in the final.
The Russian has defeated the 73rd-ranked Savil three times in three encounters. It should be mentioned that Savil was participating in her sixth WTA Tour Championships final, but her first since Hong Kong in October 2017 due to an Achilles tendon surgery that sidelined her for a year.
