Hola a todos! Welcome to Spain and to the first European Premier Mandatory played on clay. This week Sara will be in Madrid at the Mutua Open. Lady Luck has already express her favors and chose the Qualified Paula Badosa Gilbert as Sarita’s first opponent.

Unhappily for the 17-year-old home player, the match ended after 10 minutes with a retirement due to injury. Sara had already a 3-0 advantage. We would like to wish good luck to Paula for the fastest recovery.

Undoubtedly, that was a nice chance for Sara to have some rest and gather precious energies she would certainly use in the next round against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. The two have already battled twice (Miami and Monterrey) this year and Sara came always out victorious in straight sets.
