Bencic Clinches Tokyo Crown for 10th Career Title
Fifth seed Belinda Bencic of Switzerland captured her 10th career WTA title after defeating sixth seed Linda Noskova 6-2, 6-3 in the Toray Pan Pacific Open final on Sunday in Tokyo.
Bencic controlled the match from the start, firing six aces and breaking Noskova three times across an efficient 81-minute victory. It was a full-circle moment for the Swiss star, who reached the Tokyo final 10 years ago as an 18-year-old but fell short against Agnieszka Radwanska.
Noskova entered the match well-rested after advancing through a walkover and a retirement win, yet her six double faults proved costly against Bencic’s precise baseline play.

Ann Li Secures Guangzhou Title
In China, second-seeded Ann Li of the United States claimed her second career WTA Tour title by topping New Zealand’s Lulu Sun 7-6 (6), 6-2 in the final of the Guangzhou Open.
Li’s clean serving — seven aces with just one double fault — helped her close out the match in an hour and 41 minutes. The 24-year-old American, who won her first title in Tenerife in 2021, continues to show consistency on hard courts late in the season.
Sun, still chasing her maiden title, showed flashes of brilliance but was undone by four double faults and missed chances in the opening set. The New Zealander has now reached two finals this year, including one in Monterrey.
