(Reuters) - Karolina Pliskova stormed to her second WTA title of the year, beating Caroline Wozniacki 6-3 6-4 in the Qatar Open in Doha on Saturday. She took the first set comfortably after racing into a 4-1 lead, dropping her serve just once in a mid-set stumble. But the second was a far tighter affair before Pliskova ended the match as she had begun it, by breaking Wozniacki's serve. "I'm having a great start to the year, which is always important" said Pliskova before receiving her trophy in Doha. Wozniacki conceded Pliskova deserved her victory, but she said: "I've been proud of how I've been playing this week.
