Next week, Sara will play the UNICEF Open in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, her first grasscourt tournament of the year. She’s 2nd seed, and will play Kateryna Bondarenko in the first round. They’ve played 5 times before, and Sara leads the series 3-2, though Bondarenko won the only meeting on grass; at Wimbledon last year. You can see the full draw here. In doubles, Sara and Roberta are first seeds, they will play Daniilidou/Fujiwara in the first round.
Earlier this week, Sara and her coach gave a pressconference in Valencia, about Roland Garros, and Sara’s connection to the city. You can listen to it here, and thanks to Cristina we have a translation here. She also did a short interview for a radio show, which Cristina has also translated for us.
