Mayar Sherif won her second WTA Tour singles title in Iasi, Romania. The July 20, 2026 final ended after one hour and 12 minutes when Paula Badosa retired with Sherif leading 6–4, 4–0.
Rain carried the final from Sunday into Monday, and the opening games were dominated by returns. Each player broke twice in the first six games. Sherif broke in the seventh, held for 5–3 and served out the set 6–4.
Sherif broke twice more to lead 4–0 in the second. The WTA counted this as her 15th consecutive clay-court win, following WTA 125 titles in Brescia and Contrexeville.
Her first tour title came on clay in Parma in 2022. Badosa also entered the final on a winning streak: nine matches, including the Bastad WTA 125 title. Sherif emerged from that meeting of streaks with her first tour trophy in four years.
