(This is how we experienced Paula Badosa’s defeat against Aryna Sabalenka) The Spanish player had a more than worthy match. In fact, the start was unbeatable and the first to get a break in the first set was her, but little by little the Belarusian became more in tune and dragged Badosa to the gutter to leave her out of the tournament while she searches for her third win.
