Golubic staves off match point before beating Brady in Indian Wells final

Viktorija Golubic

Indian Wells, March 4: Viktorija Golubic won the final of the WTA Indian Wells Challenger event having saved match point before rallying to claim a 3-6 7-5 6-3 victory over Jennifer Brady.

American Brady appeared to be on course for a straight-sets success when serving at 6-3, 5-4 up but Golubic, ranked outside the world's top 100, fought back and forced a decider.

And it was Golubic who claimed the final set to wrap up victory in two hours, 12 minutes on Sunday.

Victory at the WTA 125k series event represents the 26-year-old Swiss' biggest triumph since her only Tour title at the Swiss Open in 2016.
