    A day after pulling off a Houdini-like escape against No.2 seed Ana Ivanovic in the semifinals - she was down a set, and 3-0 down in the third set - the No.1-seeded Halep scored another come-from-behind victory against No.4 seed Stosur in the final, looking completely out of it in a 31-minute first set but rebounding very nicely in the next two sets to beat the Australian to the season-ending title, 26 62 62.

Halep won 20 of the last 26 points of the match, finishing it off on a forehand down the line winner.

"I really wanted to win this tournament, so I'm just happy!" Halep said in her on-court interview after the match. "It has been a great tournament for me. And well done to you Sam, you played well all week."
