Paula Badosa suffered a tough defeat in the first round of the WTA Linz against Lili Tagger. The Spanish tennis player lost 6-4, 7-6(5) after 2 hours and 5 minutes of play, practically ruling out her participation in the main draw of Roland Garros. While in previous years some players outside the top 100 have made it, unless a miracle happens, it seems likely that Badosa will have to play the qualifying rounds. Paula fought until the end, but this time, she couldn't summon the epic comeback to turn the match around.
