Although Favour started brightly in the opening round, Grace quickly found her rhythm, taking control of proceedings with consistent scoring and composure.

‎‎The second round saw a brief resurgence from Favour, who pushed hard to level the contest, but crucial lapses allowed Grace to extend her lead. The third round was more closely contested, with both players displaying resilience, but Grace once again held her nerve to edge ahead.

‎She carried her momentum into the fourth round, maintaining her intensity and putting the game beyond doubt.
