The story

A 36-year return — and a family relay

The Athens Open is the first WTA Tour event held in the Greek capital since the 1990 Athens Trophy. The new edition is led by Maria Sakkari (career-high WTA No. 3), whose mother Angeliki Kanellopoulou contested the final of the inaugural Athens Trophy in 1986. Mother to daughter, court to court — 36 years apart.
