Marina Stakusic, the 19-year-old Canadian who faced her, is currently ranked 206 in the WTA rankings. However, although the Norte Santander had a difficult start in this match due to several double faults that harmed her performance, she managed to take the lead on the scoreboard after 39 minutes of play.
With this victory, the Cucuteña begins a new path ahead of the round of 16 that she will play against the winner of the match between the Italian Lucrezai Stefanini and the Romanian Anca Alexia Todoni that takes place today in Bogotá.
This edition of the WTA marks a new challenge in the career of the 22-year-old from Norte Santander in which she seeks to snatch the title of champion from the German Tatjana Maria (46th place in WTA) who was crowned twice in 2023 and 2022.
In a publication on X, the Colsánitas Zurich Cup networks welcomed and congratulated the Colombian tennis player who won her return match in 2 sets.
Osorio will seek to become local champion and continue climbing positions in the WTA rankings as the best Colombian ranked in world tennis.
