Pristina (Kosovo), June 1: 15-year-old Divyanshi Bhowmick, ranked World No. 211, produced a dream performance to become the youngest Indian woman ever to win a WTT Feeder Women’s Singles title here.
The young Indian star defeated the World No. 38 Yeh Yi-Tian, from Chinese Taipei, 8-11, 11-8, 11-5, 7-11, 11-7.
At just 15 years of age, she is believed to be the second-youngest player in the world, after Japan’s prodigious Miwa Harimoto, to capture a Women’s Singles title on the WTT Feeder circuit.
Adding further sparkle to an already unforgettable campaign, Divyanshi also clinched the Women’s Doubles gold medal alongside fellow Indian teenager Syndrela Das.
The Indian pair defeated the Japanese combination of Sachi Aoki and Cocona Muramatsu 7-11, 14-12, 12-14, 11-8, 11-7 in a contest lasting a little over 30 minutes. (PTI)
