This week marked the debut on the clay circuit for Paula Badosa, with the excitement of performing well at WTA Strasbourg 2025, partly forgetting about her back issues and preparing in the best possible way for Roland Garros 2025. As of now, Begur's focus will shift to the second Grand Slam of the year after falling this afternoon in the quarterfinals against Liudmila Samsonova, who showcased the power of her shots and finished stronger in the match than the always fighting Badosa (6-4, 3-6, 6-4). Consequently, Paula will soon travel to the venue of the second Grand Slam of the year, where she already knows she will face Naomi Osaka in her debut.

Other results of the day in Strasbourg (quarterfinals):

  • Elena Rybakina (4) d. Magda Linette 7-5, 6-3
  • Beatriz Haddad Maia (9) d. Emma Navarro (2) 3-6, 7-6(3), 6-2
  • Danielle Collins d. Anna Kalinskaya via Walkover
