Cincinnati, Anna Kalinskaya is already out

Complicated match for Jannik Sinner’s girlfriend

After withdrawing at the WTA 1000 in Toronto, Anna Kalinskaya had started the WTA 1000 in Cincinnati at her best: victory, in three sets, over Czech Katerina Siniakova. Unfortunately, in the next round, the Russian, number 13 in the men’s draw, è surrendered to Paula Badosa in two sets: 6-3, 6-2 the partials in favor of the Spanish tennis player.

The match è slipped away rather quickly with the Spaniard laying down the law in both partials, ending the match in one’hour and four minutes of play. In the next round, valid for the round of 16 of the tournament, Paulo Badosa will face Kazakhstan’s Yulia Putintseva, who got rid of Coco Gauff.

Definitely disappointed Anna Kalinskaya who was aiming to make an important path in Cincinnati. The performance offered against the Spaniard was not of a high level. A misstep to reflect on to try to improve for the upcoming tournaments.

Anna Kalinskaya, eliminated from the tournament, will now be able to cheer on boyfriend Jannik Sinner, who is expected, just in Cincinnati, to challenge 30-year-old Australian Jordan Thompson. At stake is a place in the quarterfinals of the Cincinnati ATP, the last Masters 1000 before the US Open.
