Paolini starts off too strong for Rybakina at Roland-Garros!

Le 05/06/2024 à 13h24 par Guillaume Nonque

A big sensation may be in the making on Court Philippe Chatrier in the first women's quarter-final of the day at Roland-Garros. Jasmine Paolini got off to the perfect start against Elena Rybakina.

Regularly taking her opponent by the scruff of the neck, making her move constantly, the Italian gave the world no. 2 no time to organize herself well enough to develop her precise, powerful tennis. As a result, the world's 12th-ranked player clearly dominated the first set (6-2), leaving the Kazakh with no real solution until then.

With no let-up on her part, Paolini is well on the way to her first Grand Slam semi-final.
