Jovic, 17, wins first WTA title in Mexico

American Iva Jovic became the youngest player to win a WTA title this season by beating Emiliana Arango 6-4 6-1 in the Guadalajara Open final.

Jovic picked up at the title aged 17 years and 283 days - replacing Mirra Andreeva (17 years and 299 days) as the youngest to win a WTA tournament in 2025.

She is also the youngest American to clinch a tour-level crown since Coco Gauff triumphed in Parma in 2021.

Jovic entered the tournament ranked 73 in the world and has climbed up to a career-high 36, having began 2025 at 206.
