A troublesome Osorio, a stepping stone for Pliskova?

Camila Osorio is currently only at the turn of the first and second hundred of the WTA rankings, but as she has shown in the past, she can think about much higher positions. She reached her career high last April.

In the first round at the Cluj tournament she defeated the seventh seed Victoria Tomova after 6:2 and 6:4 sets. She showed a very good performance on the return line, and developed eleven breakball opportunities in the match.

Karolina Pliskova has not won two competitive matches in a row in the calendar year 2024. Besides losing to Elena Rybakina, she also lost to Jelena Ostapenko and compatriot Kateryna Siniakova.

The event in Cluj, Romania could be a stepping stone for her. At the start of the tournament she knocked out Sinja Kraus of Austria after 6:4 and 7:6, but she was quite hopeful of advancing.
