Amy Frazier captured her first title of the year and the eighth of her career with a 6-1 7-5 triumph over Sofia Arvidsson in Sunday's final of the Bell Challenge.

Competing in a WTA Tour final for the first time since winning at Hobart in January 2004, the 33-year-old Frazier captured her 10th consecutive win in her first career meeting against the 21-year-old Swede.

Frazier, who upset top seed Nathalie Dechy of France in the semi-finals on Saturday, claimed the first prize of US$15,000 in the Tier III indoor event. She won a title in an ITF event in Houston two weeks ago.

Arvidsson, who had a 6-4 1-0 lead over third seed Marion Bartoli in the last four when the Frenchwoman withdrew, was appearing in her first WTA Tour final.
