Jasmine Paolini is ready to return to the court at Roland Garros. The Tuscan tennis player struggled in her Paris opener against China’s Yue Yuan, but managed to prevail in three sets and now looks ahead to her next challenge against Croatian tennis player, naturalized Australian, Ajla Tomljanović.
The winner of the Internazionali d’Italia will take the court on Wednesday, May 28, at a time yet to be determined but not before noon.
The two have never faced each other in the past. Tomljanović is currently ranked #71 in the WTA rankings, while Paolini is ranked #4.
The Blue’s goal is to at least confirm the final she reached last season to defend all her ranking points: the bookmakers give her a clear favorite over her rival.
