October 02, 2025

TENNIS Sonay Kartal produced the biggest victory of her career over Mirra Andreeva to reach the China Open quarter-finals.

The 23-year-old from Brighton battled to a 7-5 2-6 7-5 win against world number five Andreeva in Beijing to continue her stunning week.

It is the first time Kartal has beaten a top-10 player and the first time she has reached the last eight at a WTA 1000 event, while her success will see her overtake Katie Boulter as British number two.

Kartal's composure proved crucial in a contest full of entertaining rallies that was on a knife edge until the end.
