2024 Champion Semenistaja Highlights Growth Of Mumbai Open WTA 125K Series While Eyeing Another Title Run
Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association: The champion of the 2024 edition, Darja Semenistaja is back at the 2026 L&T Mumbai Open WTA 125K Series, this time as one of the leading contenders for the title at the Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association (MSLTA). The Latvian, who lifted the trophy in 2024, is eyeing another deep run in Mumbai after returning to the tournament with greater experience and a different approach.
With a current ranking of World No. 99 in Women’s Singles, the 23-year-old came into the tournament after recently featuring in the main draw of the Australian Open. With first seed Lulu Sun withdrawing from the tournament, Darja Semenistaja is now the top seed and will be hoping to reclaim the title. She opened her campaign with a composed straight-sets win over Italy’s Diletta Cherubini as she settled into the tournament.
Darja Semenistaja had an amazing campaign in the third edition of L&T Mumbai Open when she claimed her maiden WTA 125 Singles title, beating Australia’s Storm Hunter, a leading Doubles player on the WTA Tour.
