Ajla Tomljanovic Wins Biggest Title Of Her Career In Her Fourth Tournament Back

Ajla Tomljanovic has competed for a long time, and even though she still doesn't have a Tour-level title, she has now won the biggest trophy of her career at the WTA 125 tournament in Florianopolis, Brazil.

The Australian player has peaked at the World No. 32 position earlier this year. Despite that success, she has never managed to win a trophy on the WTA Tour.

She played in four WTA International finals but lost all of them. Her biggest trophy was the ITF title in Dothan, which she won back in 2013. Now, she managed to improve that result, as she triumphed at a WTA 125 tournament.

The win comes at a perfect time for Tomljanovic, who only recently returned from injury. This is her fourth event back, and she played really well all week long to find herself in the final.

The final itself was a pretty solid performance as well because she faced world no. 194, Martina Capurro Taborda, who had less experience than her, and it showed.

Tomljanovic won the opening set 6-1 and then followed that one up with a more challenging set, but she still came out on top 7-5. She was the better player for most of the match, dominating on the second serve of the Argentinian.

Tomljanovic was also solid on her own serve, and that proved to be more than enough. It's a needed result for the Australian, who had to endure injury heartbreak this year, which makes this win so significant.

She can use it to build her confidence ahead of the next season, during which she could certainly do some damage. She's finally matured as a player and is still young enough to contest for trophies.

After winning a WTA 125 title, she will now set her sights on the Tour-level trophy, as she still misses that in her cabinet.
