The top American man, 15th-seeded John Isner, beat Kyle Edmund of Britain, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. PhotoPARIS — For Turkish women’s tennis, a historic first arrived as a pair. Buyukakcay, ranked 83rd, will climb about 10 spots after her four victories in Paris, including three in the qualifying draw. “When I won Istanbul Cup, I got so many messages saying they just started to play tennis,” she said. Last month, on the same day that Buyukakcay won the singles title in Istanbul, Soylu claimed the doubles title, becoming the first Turkish woman to win a tour doubles title.
