Paula Badosa26 years old and ranked 93rd in the WTA, qualified this Monday for the fourth consecutive time for the second round of Wimbledon after defeating Karolina Muchova, 6-3 and 6-2.
The Catalan has known how to take advantage of her rival’s lack of shooting, who has only played three matches since the last US Open due to a wrist injury that also forced him to withdraw from Eastbourne last week.
Badosa, which has already equaled last year’s second round, has a large cushion of points to add because his last tournament in 2023 was precisely at Wimbledon. She retired in her second match against Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk after giving up the opening set.
For now, Pol Toledo’s pupil rises to the ‘top90’. His second obstacle in the contest will be this Wednesday con Brenda Fruhvirtova, who beat Mirra Andreeva, 1-6, 6-3 and 6-2.
Paula came out inspired and took a 3-0 lead. Muchova tried to react, but she couldn’t.
