On Tuesday in the round of 32 WTA Slovenia open, Tamara Zidansek of Slovenia will face Anastasia Zakharova of Russia.
Since overcoming Yuliya Hatouka, the world’s No. 214 player, in Bad Homburg nearly three months ago, Tamara Zidansek has gone winless. The former world number 22 has only won four matches in her previous 13 competitions, is without a series of victories since January, and has fallen outside the top 90. She had two bouts with Covid-19 infections but had previously been a semifinalist at Roland-Garros and champion in Lausanne. The 24-year-old needs to find some comfort in her hometown competition in Portoroz, where she received a walkover in 2021 and advanced to the quarterfinals.
The sixth main draw match of Anastasia Zakharova‘s tour is set to begin. This voyage began in the qualifying rounds, where she defeated a local wildcard 6-0, 6-0, and Ana Konjuh by retirement. Despite pushing three times into the third set, she has never advanced to the second round. The Russian, who had a junior career that was not even relatively respectable, has climbed from the 240th position in February to be on the verge of the top 150. Along the way, she won the W25 title in Nur-Sultan and Tbilisi (twice), as well as a W60 semifinal.
Tamara Zidansek and Anastasia Zakharova are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 WTA Slovenia Open on Tuesday, September 13. The tournament is scheduled to begin on September 12 and end on September 18.
The 2022 WTA Slovenia Open is scheduled to commence on September 12 and go on until September 18 this year. The tournament will have five rounds of play excluding the qualifiers. These are the round of 32, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals.
