The action-packed day will also see Elena Pridankina and Polina Iatcenko take on the formidable duo of Mananchaya Sawangkaew and Spain\u2019s Nicole Fossa Huergo in the women\u2019s doubles final.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Runner-up at last year\u2019s edition, Mananchaya will be eager to go one step further this time and clinch the title in Mumbai.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Thai star has once again showcased her grit and consistency throughout the week and enters the final having dropped just one set in the tournament - during a hard-fought semi final win against her compatriot Lanlana Tararudee.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Speaking ahead of the final, Mananchaya said, \u201cReaching the final again in Mumbai feels really special for me. I\u2019ve had some tough matches this week but my goal in the tournament was to stay calm and enjoy my tennis. Lilli is an amazing talent and I am looking forward to play her in the Final.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Standing in her way is 17-year-old Lilli Tagger, who has been one of the standout performers of the tournament. The Austrian teenager stole the spotlight by defeating the 2024 champion Darja Semenistaja en route to the final and has dropped just one set across her campaign. Her strong presence on the court and lethal cross-court shots have made her a fan favourite.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ahead of the big match, Lilli Tagger said, \u201cI am really thrilled to play the final. Mananchaya is an incredible player and definitely not an easy opponent so it will be a tough and exciting match. I love playing in front of the Indian crowd, the energy here is amazing, and I\u2019m looking forward to giving my best to fight for the title.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
