I hope Gabrielius can manage something in the main draw. He's been steadily improving with a fresh national title in the bag and honestly we can use some success in the men's game

Abraamian is no joke after taking out CIC at WTT SCT Muscat 2025. AIN is the new PRK.

Is it only me, or does Abraamian play a bit like Truls? Great forehand loop, short receive, cybershape?

Haste of the AIN pair in the endgame of G3 gave the JPN pair a second chance.

Elizabet Abraamian, a FH-oriented player with a BH serve. JCH failed to crack that from start to end.

The least desired scenario Pesotska vs Abraamian WS final. Walkout win for opponent's non-appearance.

She was brilliant. She clearly loves TT. So much fun to see her give Joo a heartfelt thumbs up a couple of times when Joo had done something brilliant, and then the way she kissed the table after her victory what a day for her. Look forward to seeing more from her in WTT

I don't remember anyone who loop kills the loose ball on the women's side quite like she does. Gives me chills sometimes. It is like you hear the ball, the bat and the table suffer from the power of the stroke...

Congratulations Elizabet Abraamian! She not only won singles; she won doubles as well with Maria Panfilova!
