The Cleveland player, 19, also collected the under-21 singles crown on Friday.

Parker confirmed her status as the English women's number one by easily defeating Karina Le Fevre 11-3 11-2 11-3 11-4 for her first national singles title.

Unseeded pair Emily Bates and Mary Fuller pulled off a surprise win in the women's doubles, beating second seeds Hannah Hicks and Sanja Clements 11-6 6-11 11-3 11-9 8-11 12-10.
