Madison Keys in the Strasbourg final: a dazzling performance on clay!
American Madison Keys reached the final of the Strasbourg tournament after a convincing victory over Russia's Liudmila Samsonova. In just over an hour, Keys, seeded number 4 in the draw, dominated her opponent on the Court Patrice Dominguez at the Tennis Club de Strasbourg, winning 6-1, 6-3.
This qualification marks an important step for Keys in her quest for the title on French clay, which is not her preferred surface. In the final, she will face either Anhelina Kalinina or Danielle Collins, in the hope of lifting the coveted trophy.
With her powerful game and experience on the WTA Tour, Keys promises to be a serious contender for the title. Tennis fans can't wait to see if she can keep up the momentum and lift the trophy this Saturday. The best way to boost her confidence two days before the start of the French Open.
