Karolina Pliskova and Caroline Dolehide are scheduled to face each other in the first round of the 2022 WTA San Diego Open October 11.
Karolina Pliskova failed to deliver in the last two tournaments after a strong showing during the North American hard court season. In Tokyo, the Czech beat the relatively unknown Isabella Shiniakova in the first round before falling to Petra Martic in the second round. Even worse, she was defeated in the first round by Alycia Parks in Ostrava last week. So, while she may be nervous as she prepares for her first round match in San Diego, the world number 22 will be determined to overcome her recent setbacks and make a strong comeback. Pliskova struggled in the first six tournaments she competed in after a delayed start to the season due to a hand injury.
Caroline Dolehide advanced to the main draw in San Diego after defeating two of the top 50 players in the qualifying round. In the first qualifying round, the World No. 181 defeated the World No. 49 Madison Brengle of the United States. She maintained her lead in the second qualifying round, defeating World No. 38 Jil Teichman. This is only her fourth tour-level main draw appearance of the season. After qualifying for the main draw, she was knocked out in the first round of the Australian Open. She won her first round match in Guadalajara after qualifying, and she also won her opener in San Jose as a lucky loser, but she lost in the Round of 16 of both tournaments.
Karolina Pliskova and Caroline Dolehide are scheduled to face each other in the first round of the 2022 WTA San Diego Open on Tuesday, October 11. The competition’s main draw is set to commence on October 10, 2022 and conclude on October 16, 2022.
The WTA San Diego Open 2022 will have five rounds of action excluding the qualifiers. These are the round of 32, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and final. The competition’s main draw is set to commence on October 10, 2022 and conclude on October 16, 2022.
