Camila Osorio went from less to more in her debut at the US Open 2022 and beat the local Ann Li 1-6, 6-3 and 6-1.
The tennis player from Cucuta took a long time to warm up. However, supported by her background game, and with the complicity of a large part of the public, she managed to carry out a match against whoever was her executioner in the final of the WTA 250 in Tenerife last year.
Now, in the second round, will face the also American Alison Riskecurrent n ° 29 in the world.
A first set to forget
Camila Osorio’s match started far from expected. The cucuteña started with a double fault that gave notice that her serve is still a point to improve.
Then imprecise with his forehand, somewhat better on the backhand, Osorio kept his guard up during that opening set.
Li, in that first sample, did not notice the lack of activity of the last month, as he maintained a lot of coordination and effectiveness despite not being part of any previous tournament of the hard court tour.
second set
In the second set, Osorio started with a lot of vehemence. He managed to break the first serve of his rival and imposed conditions with a varied game in which he was seen going to the net very firmly.
third set
Already for the last manga, Li looked tired. The American was very ineffective going to the net and misplaced before Osorio’s rally.
Although at times it was thought that the local could prevent the victory, the Colombian remained solid in her proposal and ended up removing any risk of defeat.
With this result, Osorio equaled her participation from last year, which ended with a loss to the Tunisian Ons Jabeur in the second round.
