Jasmine Paolini, okay debut at Roland Garros

Jasmine Paolini, ok debut at Roland Garros

Jasmine Paolini è got off on the right foot at Roland Garros 2024. The Italian tennis player, who with Sara Errani won the doubles tournament in Rome a week ago, overcame Australia's Daria Saville in the first round in an hour and 36 minutes of play.

L'Azzurra è imposed herself with the partials of 6-3, 6-4 against the number 84 in the world: in the first set Paolini è was brilliant in response (as many as 4 breaks hit), less so in serving. In the second partial, conditioned by rain, the Tuscan è rose in level and closed without hesitation.

Jasmine Paolini will challenge the winner of the derby between Hailey Baptiste and Kayla Day in the second round. For her, the goal è to reach the third round of the Paris Slam for the first time in her career.
