Gabriel Ruse, first match at Roland Garros

Gabriela Ruse (28 years old, 75 WTA) has a tough match in the first round at Roland Garros, with the Polish Magdalena Frech (28 years old, 49 WTA).

In case of a qualification, Ruse could beat Liudmila Samsonova (27 years old, 20 WTA) in the 2nd round. If the surprise succeeds, we could have a 100% Romanian duel in the third round in Paris, against Jaqueline Cristian (27 years old, 33 WTA), who will play in the first round with Kamilla Rakhimova (24 years old, 59 WTA) on Monday, May 25.

If she reaches the 2nd round, Cristian will meet Karolina Muchova (29 years old, 10 WTA) and only then could she meet her compatriot, even if both have an extremely complicated route.

Gabi Ruse has never made it past the second round at the French Open. Best result in a major tournament is a round of 16 at the Australian Open.

Until today's match, the two players have met 4 times, and our representative won three times, the last time last year in Miami, score 6-4, 6-4.
