Emma Navarro won her first title on clay Saturday by posting a 6-0, 5-7, 6-2 victory over top-seeded Victoria Mboko of Canada at the Internationaux de Strasbourg in France.

Navarro overcame four aces by Mboko and benefited from six double faults by her foe to secure her third career title and first since the Merida Open in Mexico in February 2025.

Navarro won 34 of 46 first-serve points and saved seven of 10 break points to dispatch Mboko in 2 hours and 20 minutes.

Mboko double faulted on a game point in the third set and slipped on a crucial point. She won’t have much time to lament the loss, as she begins play in the French Open on Sunday with a first-round match against Czechia’s Nikola Bartunkova.
