French Open
Eva Lys in Paris continued after a strong performance
Eva Lys is for the first time at a Grand Slam directly in the main field. In Paris, she proves that she belongs there in an impressive way.
Eva Lys was the first German tennis player to reach the second round at the French Open. The 23 -year -old German number one prevailed in Paris against the Peyton Stearns from the USA, which was set to number 28, surprisingly clearly 6: 0, 6: 3 and survived the opening round for the first time in Stade Roland Garros. Lys now has to deal with the Canadian qualifier Victoria Mboko.
In changeable weather, Lys showed an almost flawless idea. The Hamburg native determined the action right from the start and put the favorite American under pressure. In the second round, Lys survived some critical phases and converted their match ball after 1:18 hours.
At the beginning of the year, Lys had caused a sensation at the Australian Open at the beginning of the year. At the first Grand Slam tournament of the season, she was actually eliminated in qualification, but came into the main field as a so-called Lucky Loserin and took her chance.
Laura, on the other hand, is eliminated in Paris. The 37-year-old had to give up the Hungarian Anna Bondar 6: 7 (2: 7), 3: 6. No effort had the world ranking aryna Sabalenka from Belarus, who exhausted the Russian Kamilla Rachimowa 6: 1, 6-0.
