India’s Karman Kaur Thandi has clinched her second W60 ITF title of her career after winning at the Evansville event in the USA. Karman overcame a strong challenge from Yulila Starodubtseva of Ukraine before winning 7-5, 4-6, 6-1 to secure her second singles crown at an ITF women’s world tour tournament on Sunday.


With this win, Karman becomes the only Indian woman after Sania Mirza to win a pro title in USA. Karman earlier had won her maiden W60 ITF title in Saguenay last year. Overall, this was her fourth career title. At Evansville, Karman ousted Maria Fernanda Navarro of Mexico in round 1, before eliminating local challenger Maribella Zamarippa.


She then beat wild card Allie Kiick of the United States 6-3 6-3 in the quarter-finals. Karman prevailed over Mccartney Kessler of the United States 6-4 7-5 in the semi-finals to make her way into the final. Karman is currently 261st in the WTA singles rankings and is the second-ranked women’s player in the country. This victory comes after her two recent runner-up finishes—in the doubles event of the W60 Saskatoon Challenger, Canada and in the singles event of the W60 Sumter Palmetto Pro Open in USA.
