The national team of Bulgaria for the "Billie Jean King Cup" Liya Karatancheva won the doubles title at the red court tennis tournament in Santa Margherita di Pula (Italy) with a prize fund of 25 thousand dollars.

The Bulgarian and Eleni Hristofi (Greece), who are the leaders in the scheme, defeated in the final the representatives of the hosts Eleonora Alvizi and Federica Urghzesi with 6:0, 6:4.

The 20-year-old Karatancheva won the second doubles trophy in her career from the ITF tournaments and the first since 2022. About a month ago, she reached the doubles final of the hard court tennis tournament in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic), but failed to win the title.
