Jasmine imposes himself 6-4 6-3 on the 2022 finalist: “I finally won two matches in a row in Rome”
Next to the round of 16 without having lost a set. Jasmine Paolini is super concentrated in these internationals, he is keen to leave his mark in the house tournament, always stingy with satisfactions in the past (never beyond the second round). Today’s game, on a overflowed central, was the proof of this. Against an expert player such as ONS Jabeur, currently in 36th WTA but in the past number 2 of the world and finalist in Rome in 2022, Jasmine has imposed himself 6-4 6-3, just like the debut with Sun.

“I finally won two games in a row in Rome. This field is special for us Italians, there is so much public, you have to get used to it. I am happy with how I managed the game, I must admit that I had some ups and downs, but in the end the important thing is to have brought it home,” Paolini said after the match. In the round of 16, for the number 5, there will be the Latvian Ostapenko, number 4. “It will be a tough match, she is a great player and knows how to hit the ball very strongly. I will put it all to go to the quarterfinals”.
