Taylah Preston’s breakout season is going from strength to strength after she won the biggest singles title of her career in Tokyo.
The 20-year-old secured an ITF W100 crown, becoming just the third Australian since 2017 – joining Maddison Inglis in April 2024 and Astra Sharma in May 2025 – to claim a title of that calibre.
Preston prevailed in emphatic fashion, defeating Harriet Dart in the quarterfinals, before downing top seed Lanlana Tararudee 6-1 4-6 6-4 in the final.
Now coached by Brett Hunter at the National Tennis Academy in Brisbane, the West Australian has made significant progress in 2026.
