She takes the break at the first opportunity.

An utterly dominant performance from the 37-year-old qualifier.

Well there was a bit of a tussle in the middle of the opening set but in the end Maria takes it with a very impressive hold to love.

Anisimova struggling to find the answers here.

Anisimova saves the first break point with a superb ace but Maria has the better of her in the next point and she misses the forehand.

The German will now serve for the set.

Anisimova sets up the winner but misses the forehand and fires into the net for 0-30.

She goes for all out power on the next point and it works.

Then she sends Maria chasing back and forth around the court but misses the volley at the net to hand Maria two break points.

She puts her head in her hands, how has she missed that?

When you're playing against someone who slices and carves the ball, footwork is so important. It's going to challenge Amanda Anisimova in a lot of ways - but she will be aware of that.

That's a ripping backhand winner from Amanda Anisimova to take the break and get us back on serve in set one.

Game on.

This is more like it from Anisimova.

She brings up a break point on the Maria serve.

Can she get back on level terms?

That's a steadying hold for Amanda Anisimova.

A lovely deft dropshot at the net from Anisimova hands her a confidence-boosting hold to love.

She needed that after Maria had taken the last three games.

Oops.

A double fault from Maria hands Anisimova a lifeline at 40-0 then a brilliant passing forehand winner gets her to 40-30.

The American goes for the overhead smash on the next point but she is just leaning too far back and ends up slamming it into the net.

Break consolidated.

Got it! Anisimova fires into the net and there's the early break for Maria.

What a start for the qualifier.

Now it's Maria's turn to try and cause some problems on the Anisimova serve.

She gets out to 0-30 then brings up three break points on the American's serve with a lovely passing forehand.

Tatjana Maria does such a fantastic job of putting you in uncomfortable positions on court. The biggest thing is remaining patient and just respecting the ball.

A couple of powerful backhands get Anisimova out to 0-30 on the Maria serve but Maria holds her nerve to battle back to 40-30 then takes the game when Anisimova overcooks a forehand.

Good grit from Maria to stay in the game.

This is one of the most fascinating finals we've had in a long time. There's so many variables that you don't get that often on the WTA Tour.

A routine hold to 15 for Anisimova as these two continue to try and scope each other out.

Maria hits long to keep us on serve.

Tatjana Maria played her first professional match just a few days before her opponent today was born.

Grass is a very unusual surface. On a hard court or clay, Tatjana Maria would get exposed a little more. She has a great understanding of this surface and how clever slice is.

Tatjana Maria's husband and children are courtside, as they have been all tournament, with her youngest daughter in the pram.

Maria takes the hold in her opening game as she comes into the net and hits a winner on the volley.
