Cadantu just won her Singles QF match few hours ago, albeit quiet comfortably I should add. A 6-4 6-0 score upsetting her seeded opponent. Wonder what made the team to give a walkover.

Prarthana and her partner got lucky in the final as their opponents retired after losing the first game. So, first title of the year for Prarrthana and this is the biggest title of her career so far as previously she had won only $25K titles. Hope she moves ahead to WTA tour soon.

[bujilover]

Congrats to Prarthana for her first title of the year. Wonder where she is headed to next. Doesn't seem to be playing in any CHs for next week.

[sameerph]

She is now ranked inside top 150, being ranked at 144.
