Sofia Kenin Reaches First WTA Final in Over a Year in Tokyo
Sofia Kenin's resurgence continued in Tokyo on Saturday as she reached her first WTA final in over a year, defeating Katie Boulter 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals of the WTA 500 event.
Kenin's victory marked a significant milestone in her comeback, as it was her first semifinal appearance since September 2022. The American had struggled with injuries and a loss of form in recent months, but her performance in Tokyo suggests that she is rediscovering her best tennis.
The 2020 Australian Open champion is now projected to return to the Top 100 in the WTA rankings, and a title victory in Tokyo could see her climb even higher. Kenin has a strong record in finals, having won five of her eight previous appearances.
Kenin's resurgence is a testament to her resilience and determination. After a challenging period, she has shown that she still has the talent and drive to compete at the highest level.
