British teenager Hannah Klugman claimed the biggest title of her career at the W100 Wrexham tournament, while Israel’s Amit Vales won consecutive M15 events in Heraklion during another busy week on the ITF World Tennis Tour.
A total of 31 singles finals were contested across the men’s and women’s circuits from 19–25 October, including 16 women’s events and 15 men’s tournaments.
Klugman wins biggest career title in Wrexham
Hannah Klugman, 17, defeated France’s Elsa Jacquemot 6-2, 6-4 to win the W100 Wrexham title, completing the tournament without dropping a set.
The British wildcard entered the event ranked No. 341 and defeated several higher-ranked opponents during the week, including Rebecca Šramková in the quarterfinals and fellow Briton Jodie Burrage in the semifinals.
Klugman completed her victory over Jacquemot in one hour and 23 minutes, capturing the biggest title of her professional career.
The win is Klugman’s second title of her career after claiming the W50 Leiria title earlier in the year.
Vales completes back-to-back victories in Greece
Amit Vales won the M15 Heraklion title for the second consecutive week, defeating Romania’s Cezar Cretu 6-2, 6-3.
The Israeli had won the previous week’s tournament at the same venue, defeating Slovenia’s Luka Talan Lopatic by the identical scoreline.
Belgium’s Jack Loge also reached consecutive M25 finals in Luanda. After winning the previous week’s title against Thomas Faurel, Loge was beaten 6-2, 6-2 by Eliakim Coulibaly of Côte d’Ivoire in the latest final.

The Finnish teenager took the opening set against Arda Azkara, but the Turkish player recovered to win 2-6, 6-4, 6-3.
Elsewhere, Pedro Sakamoto won the M15 Maceió title in Brazil, one week after finishing runner-up at the M15 Maringá event.
Dramatic finals in Karlovy Vary and Saguenay
Ukraine’s Daria Lopatetska produced one of the week’s most remarkable scoreline comebacks at W15 Karlovy Vary.
After losing the opening set 6-0 against Katerina Zajickova, Lopatetska won a marathon second-set tiebreak 14-12 before completing a 0-6, 7-6(12), 6-3 victory.
