NUSA DUA, Indonesia -- Second-seeded Patty Schnyder of Switzerland won her first title in three years, defeating Austrian teenager Tamira Paszek 6-3 6-0 Sunday to take the Bali Open.

It was the 12th WTA singles title for the 29-year-old Schnyder, who last won at the Cincinnati Open in July 2005.

The 94th-rank Paszek, 17, reached the final by upsetting top-seeded Daniela Hantuchova in the semifinals, as well as third-seeded Flavia Pennetta and seventh-seeded Sara Errani in earlier rounds.
