- • She beat Dayana Yastremska 6-1, 7-6 to secure her spot in the final.

Loïs Boisson, the number one French tennis player, has made history by reaching her first main circuit final at the WTA 250 tournament in Hamburg. On July 19, she triumphed over Ukrainian player Dayana Yastremska in straight sets, finishing with a score of 6-1, 7-6, where she faced a tougher challenge in the second set, eventually securing her place in the final through a tie-break.
This victory is particularly notable as Boisson, currently ranked 63rd in the world, now prepares to face Hungarian Anna Bondár, who is ranked 77th, in the final match. Boisson's ascent comes on the heels of her impressive semifinal run at Roland-Garros just a month ago, although she faced a setback at Wimbledon, where she failed to qualify. However, her recent performance on clay courts has reinvigorated her confidence ahead of the upcoming US Open, where she has qualified directly due to her current ranking.
