Simona Halep :
"I know these times are very difficult but thank you for coming. It was a good energy on the court and I really enjoyed to be here. I want to say congrats to Karolina.
I know it's not the way we want to finish a tournament in a final, but you played great this week so congrats, good recovery, and good luck at the French Open. Probably we will meet in the final.
"In 2013 here I started to come to the top of world tennis. I really enjoyed and I was really happy on court that I could do the semifinals then. Since then I started to play really well and finally after two finals I could win this title.
I love this tournament and I'm really happy that I have this beautiful trophy in my hands"
Karolina Pliskova :
"Thank you all for coming. It was great to play with some fans this week. Disappointing for me to not finish today, but Simone, obviously too strong. I always have to be 100% to play a good match against you.
Congratulations for the whole week. I think you deserve the title."
