Weird stuff in Rome.
Simona Halep was definitely the favorite in her opener against Naomi Osaka, but the Japanese was a clear threat especially after she demolished Azarenka 6-0 6-3 in the first round.
Eventually, things got really smooth for Simona that won 12 consecutive games after she dropped the opener to win 6-1 6-0 in just 59 minutes.
Next vs. Madison Keys
Simona will face Madison Keys in the 3rd round. The head to head is 5-1 for the world no.1.
THAT’S A GOOD START! |
