Paula Badosa Is Waking Up. The WTA Should Be Worried.
Charleston, South Carolina – For the first time since last summer, Paula Badosa has done something that used to come easy: she won two tennis matches in a row.
On Wednesday at the Credit One Charleston Open, the former world number two dispatched Maria Sakkari 6-3, 6-4. It was clinical. It was confident. And it was her first win over the Greek since 2021.
The talent never left. The body just wouldn't cooperate. Now? The rhythm is coming back. And that is bad news for the rest of the draw.
