India’s Tanvi Lad emerged triumphant at the Welsh International Future Series, defeating France’s Marie Batomene in straight games on Saturday in Cardiff.

The 24-year-old, who was the top seed at tournament, took just 28 minutes to dismantle her opponent 21-15, 21-8.

The first game started as a tight affair, with the scores tied 9-9 at one point. From there, Tanvi started pulling away and won the 5 of the last 7 points to wrap up the first game. The second game, however, was a cakewalk as she dismantled her opponent, winning 7 consecutive points during the game – Batomene could only manage to win 8 point in all.

The win was her second of the day, after she defeated third seed Jordan Hart from Wales in the semi-final, earlier on Saturday. That

The win comes for Tanvi at the end of the year where she struggled for the most part, winning just 3 matches coming into the tournament out of the 10 she played. Her ranking had slid to 91 and this title comes as a welcome return to form.

Meanwhile, in the men’s singles section, RMV Gurusaidutt lost in the final against Nhat Nguyen, the seventh seed from Ireland.
