The 22-year-old Goerges collected her second career title to add to her 2010 Bad Gastein trophy, 17 years after Anke Huber won the second of her Stuttgart crowns in 1994.

Goerges, who sent down 38 winners to Wozniacki's nine, will now break into the top 30 for the first time in her career.

It was Wozniacki's second final defeat in 2011 after losing to Russia's Vera Zvonareva in Doha in February.
