Leylah Fernandez claimed the WTA 500 in Washington after a one-sided final against Anna Kalinskaya (6-1, 6-2).

Both players, unseeded, managed to reach the final thanks to solid performances. Fernandez took down two top 20 members (Pegula and Rybakina), while Kalinskaya gained momentum by defeating Tauson in the quarterfinals and Raducanu in the semifinals.

The final started late due to the unpredictable weather in the U.S. capital.

Unyielding in this match, Fernandez only conceded three games to her opponent. 1 hour and 9 minutes of play were enough for her to capture the biggest title of her career.

Runner-up at the US Open in 2021, Fernandez will arrive in Montreal with a nice confidence boost. She will climb 12 spots in the WTA rankings tomorrow and will be ranked 24th in the world.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
