Duo Takes Paralympic Master’s Title


A UK–Japanese women’s pair claimed the International Tennis Federation’s Wheelchair Doubles Master’s title in California on 11 November, the Dudley News reported on 14 November.

Jordanne Whiley became the first British woman to earn the trophy, with her partner Yui Kamiji.

Both players were Wimbledon runners up, and edged a doubles pair from Germany and South Africa in their final match in Mission Viejo.

Whiley and Kamiji will also compete together in the Australian Open in January.
