Ankita Raina won her first singles title in more than three years when she fought past second seed Amandine Hesse in straight sets in the final of the USD 25,000 ITF women's event, here today. The fourth seed Indian, who has been in tremendous form in the last few months, beat the Frenchwoman 6-2 7-5 in the title clash which lasted one hour and 25 minutes. The last time Ankita won a singles title was way back in December 2014, when she had triumphed in the Pune ITF event.
