At the age of 14, Hannah Klugman of Great Britain took home the prestigious Orange Bowl junior championships.
Klugman advanced to the quarter-finals in Shrewsbury after becoming the youngest player to qualify for an ITF World Tour event worth $100,000 (£80,000).
Coco Gauff, the current US Open champion, held the record.
Future Grand Slam champions Chris Evert, Caroline Wozniacki, Bianca Andreescu, and Gauff, who won the Orange Bowl in 2018 at the age of 14, are among its previous winners.
Klugman remarked, “It’s an amazing feeling.” I competed in the finals of the 14s last year. I was devastated that I didn’t win, and it’s amazing that under-18s were able to win.
This is only a small step on the journey, but it’s still nice.
