As the buzz surrounding the first Grand Slam of the season began to slowly diminish, many players were still hard at work on the ITF Pro Circuit. This week, there were 13 events being played simultaneously across the world, with the biggest being the Dow Corning Tennis Classic, the first $100,000 stop on the women's calendar held in Midland, Michigan.

The Broadys Win Respective Titles

Now in its eighth year as one of the only $100,000 stops on the entire ITF Pro Circuit, the 2016 Dow Corning Tennis Classic is one to remember for Naomi Broady. The British number two, who had an impressive start to the year in Auckland where she defeated Ana Ivanovic, continued her fine form in Midland as she defeated American Robin Anderson 6-7(6), 6-0, 6-2 to take home the title. This is the biggest title of the 25-year-old's career, and just her eighth overall. In addition, Broady will break into the top 100 for the very first time, and will be ranked number 96 in the world come Monday.

Elsewhere, Naomi's brother, Liam Broady, was victorious on home soil, defeating Switzerland's Adrien Bossel 6-3, 4-6, 6-2 to win the $10,000 Futures event in Glasgow. With this win, Broady will add a ninth ITF singles title to his résumé, and will rise three spots in the rankings to number 310 in the world.

Han, Georges, Diez Among Other Champions This Week

Even though the Australian Open is over, there is still some world-class tennis Down Under. A week after the conclusion of the Grand Slam of Asia Pacific, China's Han Xinyun took home the $75,000 title in Launceston, cruising past Russia's Alla Kudryavtseva 6-1, 6-1 in 57 minutes. Han, who won the 2016 Asia Pacific Australian Open Wildcard Playoff, fell rather tamely to Kazakhstan's Yulia Putintseva in Melbourne, but rebounded in emphatic style in Launceston, not dropping a set en route to her seventh ITF singles title.

Meanwhile, in the Southeastern French city of Grenoble, home favourite Myrtille Georges defeated the Netherlands' Indy de Vroome 7-6(4), 6-2 to capture the $25,000 championship. While Georges was solid throughout, de Vroome is to blame for her own wrongdoing as she hit 19 double faults in ten service games (almost two per service game).

Other winners this week on the women’s side include include Germans Julia Wachaczyk, Anne Schaefer and Anna Zaja - who all won respective titles, and Italy's Angelica Moratelli.

On the men’s side of the spectrum, all the tournaments played this past week are classified as $10,000 events, with Steven Diez, Victor Baluda and Jeremy Jahn among some of the players to add another title to their respective résumés.

A Look at Next Week's Tournaments

As per usual, the ITF Pro Circuit is showing no signs of slowing down as there will be 14 tournaments to be played next week – eight for the men and six for the women – ranging from Oberentfelden, Switzerland to Baku, Azerbaijan to Perth, Australia.
