Spain's Anabel Medina Garrigues won her third straight Internazionali Femminili di Palermo title on Sunday.
The number two seed saw off local wildcard Tathiana Garbin 6-4 6-4 in the final, and was in fine form all week as she dropped just one set.
The 23-year-old, who turns 24 on July 31, gave herself an early birthday present by claiming the $145,000 crown.
