"I played really well, and I think the semifinal and final I played really on a high level."

Estonian Kontaveit had won their two previous meetings but Ostapenko powered to victory in little over an hour.

"I think it's just the beginning," 24-year-old wildcard Ostapenko said. "If I keep playing the way I played this tournament, I think I can be back in the top 10 and play well.

"I just have to keep that in my mind and work even harder."
