Sara Errani clinches fourth title of year at Palermo

Sara Errani has won her fourth title of the season with a straight-sets victory over Barbora Zahlavova Strycova at the Italiacom Open in Palermo.

The Italian world number nine saw off Laura Robson's semi-final conqueror 6-1 6-3 in the Sicilian capital.

The 25-year-old, who triumphed at the tournament in 2008, adds the trophy to her wins in Budapest, Barcelona and Acapulco.

Errani famously failed to score a single point in the first set of her third-round defeat to Yaroslava Shvedova at Wimbledon this year.
