The reigning Wimbledon champion will face Karolina Pliskova in the first round of the WTA Guadalajara Open.
Ever since she won the 2022 Wimbledon Championships, Elena Rybakina’s season has not exactly gone the way she might have hoped. The Kazakhstani tennis star was dumped out of the US Open last month in the very first round by Clara Burel 6-4, 6-4. She then reached the final of the Slovenia Open where she was beaten by Katerina Siniakova 7-6 (7-4), 6-7 (5-7), 4-6. Rybakina then had a decent showing at the Ostrava Open where she reached the semi-final before being beaten by Barbora Krejcikova. The reigning Wimbledon champion will face Karolina Pliskova in the first round of the WTA Guadalajara Open.
Pliskova had a displayed a fine performance at the US Open last month where she reached the quarter-finals. The 30-year-old beat Victoria Azarenka and Belinda Bencic at the Grand Slam but was defeated by Aryna Sabalenka. The Czech then took part in the Ostrava Open and the San Diego Open but was beaten in both in the first and second round respectively.
Elena Rybakina and Karolina Pliskova are scheduled to face one another in the second round of the 2022 WTA Guadalajara Open on Wednesday, October 19. The competition’s main draw is set to commence on October 17, 2022 and conclude on October 23, 2022.
