Lordsport, Florinthus - Ellen Tosher became the first Adwestene to win the Florinthian Open after defeating Jandrea Lucy Wallace in two sets (6-3 and 6-4).

It was the first Grand Slam final for Tosher, and the third one for Wallace -who had won the Hylis Open in 1580- but Tosher showed an unexpected coldness to win without losing a game in the match. After his victory, the 25-year old Tosher -who was a complete unknown at the beginnig of the season- rises to the third position of the IAT Women's Ranking. Jandrean Katherine Snowdon, despite being unable to advance in the early rounds of the Florinthian Open, will lead the ranking one week more.

On Men's Singles, Jandrean Steven Claydon defeated Hylian Nehemiah Aicken in four sets (6-2, 3-6, 6-4, 6-0), winning his first Grand Slam. After this victory, Claydon becomes number one of the Men's Ranking, displacing Gehennan Hermann Manninger, who had held the highest position of the ranking for more than ten months.
