Last Frenchwoman in the running in Montreal, Léolia Jeanjean lost in two sets against the German Eva Lys (6-1, 6-4).
Like Elsa Jacquemot (opposite Marino) and Varvara Gracheva (opposite Zhu), Léolia Jeanjan, also passed through qualifications, was eliminated in the first round of the WTA 1000 in Montreal. A defeat against the German Eva Lys (23 years old, 69th) in two sets (6-1, 6-4). Widely dominated in the first round with two conceded breaks and a service that is lacking (four double faults), Jeanjean timidly found confidence in the second set. A station wagon allowing him to lead 3-1 and hope. The opposition between the two players was the second after the success of the French last year in qualifying for the Grand Colem of Melbourne.
This Monday in Canada, the trend was not reversed. Taking up the service of his opponent in stride, Lys aligned five games in a row. With a very good service – 76 % of the first balls, 73 % points behind its first service – the German logically concluded against Jeanjean. She will be opposed to Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the next round. Following the drink package before the start of the tournament and the three eliminations of the Blue of the main draw, there is therefore no more French in Montreal.
Osaka and Raducanu in the second round
His beautiful journey in Washington had stopped in the final. But Emma Raducanu went back to work in Montreal for her entry into the tournament. The Briton largely dominated the Romanian Elena Gabriela Ruse (6-2, 6-2) and will be opposed to Peyton Stearns in the second round. The health walk is also what Naomi Osaka knew this Monday. After announcing the end of her partnership with Patrick Mouratoglou, the Japanese dominated the local Ariana Arseneault, 515th world player (6-4, 6-2). Osaka is accompanied by the former Iga Swiatek coach for this Canadian tour, Tomasz Wiktorowski. She will face Liudmila Samsonova (16th in the world) in the second round.
