Wang Routs Podoroska
Facing Shnaider will be China’s Xiyu Wang, who ousted Nadia Podoroska in a one-sided opening round contest.
Wang, who is playing in the tournament for the third time in her career, registered her first win as she knocked out the Argentinian 6-3, 6-3.
The 22-year-old lost the only break point that she faced in the match and capitalised on four of the eight breaking opportunities that she held to march into the second round of the tournament.
Wangs is now 23-22 across levels. She recently reached the Tokyo 5 ITF final, finishing runner-up in the tournament. Wang’s best at the tour level this year saw her reach the round of 16 in Rome and the third round in Madrid.
She is yet to make it to the quarterfinals at the tour level this year. Could that happen on Wednesday?
