Xiyu Wang - Arantxa Rus

Amanda Anisimova, a 24-year-old American, has been absent from tennis for about a month and a half. Of course, here in Italy, the clay is very slow and at 1.80 meters tall, Anisimova finds it difficult to play, as she already prefers to play with fast balls and struggles with low balls. Looking back at her performances in Madrid and Rome, she was eliminated in the early stages. Jelena Ostapenko, on the other hand, is showing signs of life this year, though she may lack some endurance. However, the Latvian knows how to play on clay, and her technique is good, as shown by her previous victory at Roland Garros.
