DEN BOSCH, Netherlands - Michaella Krajicek beat Dinara Safina of Russia 6-3, 6-4 to win the Ordina Open on Saturday, the first Dutch woman to capture her country's only grass-court tournament.
In a final between younger sisters of Grand Slam winners, Krajicek won her third career title and second this year, the others coming in Hobart in January and last year in Tashkent.


The 17-year-old player has won all three times she has been to a final.
Richard Krajicek, a tournament organizer who won Wimbledon in 1996, kissed his sister on both cheeks at the on-court awards ceremony of this Wimbledon tuneup.
