Super Camila Giorgi in the first round of Roland Garros: the Italian tennis player beat the darling of the home crowd, Alizé Cornet (6/3,6/4) in two sets. Now, however, the Italian champion will have a very difficult second match on the red clay of Paris: in front of her Jessica Pegula29-year-old American number 3 in the WTA world rankings (and a year ago in the quarterfinals of Roland Garros).

Camila Giorgi, Alizé Cornet: her style of play puts a lot of pressure on you
Meanwhile, his great performance against Alizé Cornet remains. That after the match you confessed how complicated it is to face a player like Camila Giorgi who has short-term and very offensive tennis: “I’m disappointed I didn’t play the way I wanted, it wasn’t a good match. During the second set I had some chances, she made a lot of mistakes, but I wasn’t really in the match. Her style of play puts a lot of pressure on you. ” And again:” I never expect anything when I go on the pitch. I know what I can do. But during the first round of a Grand Slam, you never know what to expect, especially against a player like Camila. You can’t play against her. I could have played a better game.”
