ITF Women’s Open: Darja Seministaja Adds Singles Title To Doubles Triumph
Darja Seministaja: Darja Semenistaja lived up to her top billing as she annexed the ITF Women’s Open crown, steamrolling an error-prone sixth seed Carole Monnet in the final played at the KSLTA Stadium here on Sunday. The Latvian after breezing past 6-1 in the first set was leading 3-0 in the second set when her French rival threw in the towel owing to a back injury.
This was the 21-year-old Darja’s 15th ITF title overall, which she made more memorable by winning the doubles title as well on Saturday.
“I am feeling very happy to take two titles home. I think Bengaluru is lucky for me,” said Darja who took home the winner’s cheque of US $ 6094 while earning 50 WTA points each for her singles and doubles victory. Carole won the runner-up cheque for US $ 3257 while earning 33 WTA points for her effort.
