Elina Svitolina knows that this week only the title at the WTA 250 in Rouen will do. It's a lower category event where she can start her clay court season by gaining the confidence she needs before facing the big tournaments ahead. For now, we can say that her first match ended with flying colors, decisively defeating Jill Teichmann (6-4, 6-2) to advance to the round of 16. Let's see if this could be the beginning of a journey that ends with the title.
