Babos and Mladenovic retain French Open women's doubles title

The Hindu  

Timea Babos and Kristina Mladenovic enjoyed some sweet revenge following their US Open heartbreak as they retained their French Open doubles title to claim their fourth Grand Slam as a pair on Sunday. Hungary's Babos and local favourite Kristina Mladenovic, who were withdrawn from the US Open due to COVID-19 protocols, have now won four of the last 11 women's majors with a 6-4, 7-5 victory against Desirae Krawczyk and Alexa Guarachi in the French Open final. RELATED| Mladenovic now has five women's doubles titles to her name after also winning the French Open with compatriot Caroline Garcia. After an early trade of breaks, second seeds Mladenovic and Babos decisively stole 14th seeds American Krawzcyk and Chilean Guarachi's serve for a 5-3 lead and bagged the opening set in 50 minutes.
