Chwalinska fights back to win Wuhan Open for maiden WTA title
Poland’s Maja Chwalinska fought back to beat Britain’s Sonay Kartal 2-6, 6-4, 6-2 in the Wuhan Open final.
Maja Chwalinska, a Polish tennis player, secured her maiden WTA title at the Wuhan Open on Sunday by defeating Britain's Sonay Kartal 2-6, 6-4, 6-2. The 25-year-old Chwalinska, who was ranked 146 in the world at the start of the year, achieved an impressive comeback against the 170-ranked Kartal, who was making her second WTA 1000 event appearance after a six-month absence due to a spinal stress fracture.
Chwalinska started the year ranked 146 in the world and reached the French Open final as a qualifier in June, making her the fourth player to win her first tour-level title at a WTA 1000 event.
