Inglis spoils Rodionova's party
Teenager Maddison Inglis has crashed Arina Rodionova's party to score a maiden main-draw berth at next month's Australian Open.
Inglis produced a masterful performance to win the women's wildcard playoff with a 6-4 6-2 defeat of Rodionova, who was backing up the final the day after getting married to Richmond Tigers AFL player Ty Vickery.
Inglis' triumph came a week after narrowly missing out on the final of the under-18 Australian championship.
"I was exhausted after the 18s, just mentally and physically," she said.
"I don't know how I got through it. I'm so happy right now. I actually can't believe it still.”
