Avanesyan Reached Fourth Round of French Open
Avanesyan has been making a name for herself on the ITF tour where she has won five titles, all of them on clay, most recently in Germany in May.
And then at the French Open, where she had a stroke of luck, qualifying for the main draw as a Lucky Loser; she went on to reach the fourth round, never having won a Grand Slam match before.
That helped her rise more than 50 places in the world rankings.
Again another piece of good fortune helped her qualify for the German Open, her first WTA 500 event, again as as Lucky Loser, where she beat compatriot and number eight seed Daria Kasatkina.
There was to be no reprieve at Wimbledon though – she was beaten in the second round of qualifying.
