Danish player Caroline Wozniacki defeated French player Kristina Mladenovic in the final of the Hong Kong Open, capturing her second title in a month.

Prior to the US Open, Wozniacki had a record of 13-14 for the season. Since her participation in the last Grand Slam of the year, she now holds a record of 15-3.

Mladenovic struggled with her serve towards the end of the match. She landed less than half of her first serves in the final set and suffered three breaks.
