Lequipe also reported that Lyutova, who won her first WTA Tour tournament title in 2010, was the youngest WTA champion in Coco Gauff’s time. NYT Athletic also writes that Lyutova became the WTA Tour champion, which was in the 2010s, and that she was the youngest WTA Tour champion in the first 16 years.
According to NYT Athletic, Lyutova trains at Gorin Academy in Redmond (that is, Washington) since 2020. She started playing tennis professionally at the age of 16, and then she won the tournament in Memphis. She won her first WTA title with her final win over Vidmanova.
NYT Athletic also notes that her title is the reason for her success on the court: she played a total of 126 matches. That is why it is said that she can break the record of the US Open.
