Leylah Fernandez has collected the biggest title of her career at the D.C. Open with her most lopsided victory of the tournament by defeating Anna Kalinskaya 6-1, 6-2 in the final.

Leylah Fernandez proved her resolve three times over on the way to the DC Open final — in two grueling matches against top-15 players and one against her former doubles partner and good friend, Taylor Townsend.

The 22-year-old Canadian took down Australia's Maya Joint in the Round of 32, U.S.'s Jessica Pegula in the Round of 16, U.S.'s Taylor Townsend in the quarterfinals, and Great Britain's Emma Raducanu in the semifinals on her way to the title match—where she beat Russia's Anna Kalinskaya in straight sets (6–1, 6–2).
