Taylor Townsend is back – with a vengeance.
The 26-year-old American returned to the tour from maternity leave this month, and she has already claimed her first title, raising the trophy at the $100k ITF event in Charleston, South Carolina.
Townsend, who gave birth to her baby boy Adyn Aubrey in March of 2021, was playing just her third tournament since returning to the tour.
“First title as #adynsmom, back to work tomorrow,” she posted on Instagram.
Townsend received many plaudits from the tennis community on social media, including fellow mom Kim Clijsters.
