WTA Adelaide qualifiers, Jasmine Paolini out amid a thousand regrets
Hungary’s Bondar beat the Castelnuovo di Garfagnana native 7-6 in the third
Number 10 seed in the qualifying draw for the WTA 500 tournament in Adelaide, which kicks off on January 1, Jasmine Paolini was eliminated in the first round of the cadet mini-tournament by Hungary’s Anna Bondar, who prevailed at the end of an incredible match.
The Azzurra athlete, already ahead by one set, not only squandered a match point in the tie-break of the second partial, but also squandered a 4-1 lead in the prorogation played in the third and decisive set. With a partial 6 points to 0, the Magyar thus prevailed 7-4, sending the Tuscan tennis player home.

The WTA, like the ATP, has as its main objective the organization and management of all WTA events, as well as the compilation of the ranking, called the WTA ranking.
