Hon handed Paris chance

QUEENSLAND’S Fed Cup team member Priscilla Hon has been gifted a wildcard by Tennis Australia into this month’s French Open.

Hon, ranked no.134, has been rewarded for improvement forged in the heat of overseas Grand Slam qualifying rounds last year.

The 21-year-old from Brisbane, who started 2019 ranked No.157, was a first-time winner in Fed Cup when she partnered Ash Barty to a win in a decisive doubles match in the tie in the United States in February.
