Tennis Star Mayar Sherif Wins Liqui Moly Open in Germany

Egyptian tennis trailblazer Mayar Sherif has just won the Liqui Moly Open 2021 in Karlsruhe, Germany, after defeating Italian Martina Trevisan two to zero.

On her way to the finals, Sherif headed off against the likes of Russia’s Rebecca Sramkova and Germany’s Sina Hermann, only losing one set against Romania’s Jaqueline Cristian.

Sherif became the first Egyptian woman to win a main draw grand slam match at the Australian Open back in February, and was the first Egyptian woman to represent Egypt in tennis during the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
