Emma Navarro: US tennis star joins exclusive club after winning flawless final 6-0, 6-0
CNNCNN — American tennis star Emma Navarro produced a flawless performance in the WTA 500 Mérida Open Akron final on Sunday, beating Colombian qualifier Emiliana Arango 6-0, 6-0. Such a perfect display is so rare that Navarro has become just the fifth player since 2000 to win a WTA final without losing a game – the last time it happened was in 2021, when Iga Świątek beat Karolína Plíšková in Rome, Italy. Navarro’s rise, though, should come as no surprise after she enjoyed a successful college career at Virginia, becoming the 2021 NCAA champion in her freshman year – a result which then qualified her for the US Open main draw, where she lost in the first round. It was also the seventh Hologic WTA Tour singles title of Pegula’s career and her first of the 2025 season, which is showing a lot of promise for American tennis so far.
