The women's preliminary phase of Roland Garros 2026 will add two more Spanish players to the final draw. The strong representation of the Armada led to a crazy Friday morning: the first great protagonist was Marina Bassols, who after defeating Karolina Pliskova yesterday, today did the same with another veteran of the circuit, Aliaksandra Sasnovich, by 7-6(4) and 7-5. It is the reward after months of negative news, with the complaint about threats from bettors and the active search for sponsors to support her career; on the other hand, Kaitlin Quevedo, one of the great pearls of our tennis, also introduced herself to the world by defeating Guiomar Maristany in the Spanish classic (3-6, 6-4, 6-3) and thus sealing her ticket to what will be her first Grand Slam. An exciting morning, now all awaits to see where both will be placed in the draw.
