Sonay Kartal revelled in her proudest day after she made it a hat-trick of British female winners on day one of Wimbledon with a career-best victory over 29th seed Sorana Cirstea.
“Yeah, I’m super stoked with that one. I think last two years, having fallen short, I felt good this year coming through qualifying. “To have the people around me that I’ve spent my whole life since I was six playing with, they were here to experience that with me, I think that made it extra special.”She saved the first two set points, but Cirstea claimed the opener in 38 minutes without facing a break point.
Kartal eventually held and it wore down the resistance of world number 31 Cirstea, who was bageled after being broken three times in the final set.
