Online: Šwiateková – Podoroská, Paris (Fr.) – Grand Slam tournament Roland Garros

Nadia Podoroská is currently only one place behind her ranking maximum, in 131st place. The 23-year-old Argentine is experiencing an absolutely fantastic season, having won 43 matches in the current calendar year and lost in only six cases! It is able to play well on clay and hard surfaces. She proved it right at the beginning of the season, when she ran at the ITF concrete companies in Malibu and Petit Bourge for singles. She then added the next one in her last tournament before Roland Garros in Saint-Mal, France. Currently, Podoroská, who played the semifinals in Prague at the beginning of September, is pulling a series of thirteen victories in a row. In Paris she had to qualify, but she didn’t lose a set in that and for the first time she could taste the atmosphere of the main competition. In the beginning, she swept 6: 2 and 6: 1 the Belgian Minnen. This was followed by a surprising 6: 3, 1: 6 and 6: 2 win over Kazakh Putineva. In the third round, Podoroská lost 6: 3 and 6: 2 to the winner of Azarenková – Slovenská Schmiedlová. She also showed stop to the Czech opponent Barbora Krejčíková over the weekend (2: 6, 6: 2, 6: 3). The last time she scored the unexpected scalp of the Ukrainian world number five Elina Svitolin (6: 2, 6: 4). Podoroská is the first qualifier in the history of Roland Garros to reach the semifinals.
