Priscilla Hon looks poised to become the latest Australian tennis woman to join the growing legion of home players among the world's top 100 after another striking breakthrough win in Beijing.
The talented 27-year-old Brisbane player continued her superb year on Wednesday when, having already battled through a couple of matches just to qualify for the prestigious event, she won her first round contest at the China Open with a 1-6 6-3 7-6 (7-4) victory over experienced Swiss left-hander Viktorija Golubic.
