MONFILS, WICKMAYER RULE D.C. TENNIS COURTS

Things were looking bleak for Gael Monfils, a man with a long history of losing tennis tournament finals. Monfils’ opponent in the Citi Open title match, Ivo

Karlovic, was about to serve for the championship and had not been broken all week. Down but not quite out, Monfils came through, breaking Karlovic twice in a span of four service games and erasing a match point while coming back for a 5-7, 7-6 (8-6), 6-4 victory Sunday in Washington to earn his first trophy in 21⁄ 2 years. In the women’s final, No. 7 seed Yanina Wickmayer won her fifth WTA singles title, beating 122nd-ranked Lauren Davis 6-4, 6-2. Wickmayer became the third woman to win the singles and doubles championships in the same event in 2016.
