Paula Badosa He is very ambitious on a tennis court. Pure fire too. His heat continued to boil. A double-edged sword, which he knows must be applied to wield it properly. It can be the specific support or also your aspirations.
The Spaniard, 26 years old and world number 93, exploited that character at Wimbledon to overcome all the problems caused by a Grand Slam in itself and especially one played on grass, which requires a different tennis and a fixed attention to everything. may change within a few moments.
Badosa did it all this time. The day before he had to go home to Wimbledon without playing. Their match was canceled due to program delays due to rain. He had to return this Thursday, at 11:00 local London time, to face his second round duel against the young Czech. Brenda Fruhvirtova17 years old and number 88.
He got through it, 6-4 and 6-2 (1h.20′), handling everything, facing every possible obstacle. Even his own roots. He has played a lot, he just got back into the top-100 and wants to continue climbing to get back to the elite, if the chronic lumbar injury allows it. Sometimes he has it with himself and his technical team. An exhaust valve.
And he was also wary of the stoppages caused by his rival, who exited several minutes after the first set, returning to court 17 with a bandage on his left thigh. Later, with 4-1 in the second, another request from the physio due to an injury from the Central European, this time on a finger.
“They learn fast,” said Badosa, speaking to his people. He doesn’t really trust the distraction. But he maintained his good tendency, his mastery of the game, and completed the pass in the third round, which has already improved the result of 2023, approaching the round of 16 that he did in 2021 and 2022.
He will look for them this Friday, against the Russian Daria Kasatkinarecent WTA champion on grass from Eastbourne and defeated the British in 50 minutes Yuriko Lily Miyazaki 6-0 and 6-0.
Badosa and Kasatkina, 27 years old and No. 12, are 2-2 on their record, although they have yet to face each other on grass. A challenge for the woman from Girona in her aspirations to return to the WTA Tour.
