PORTOROZ, Slovenia -- Fifteen-year-old Tamira Paszek of Austria won her first WTA Tour title Sunday, beating sixth-seeded Maria Elena Camerin of Italy 7-5, 6-1 at the Slovenia Open.

Paszek, ranked 259th, played her first WTA tournament in October 2005 in Linz, Austria, where she reached the second round. She joined her country's Fed Cup team last year.

Camerin has never won a WTA title.
