Emma Reducanu, defeated by Angelina Kalinina at the WTA in Doha

Back on the court after several injuries, Reducanu (262 WTA) was defeated in straight sets by Angelina Kalinina (30 WTA), 6-0, 7-6(6).

The 2021 US Open champion was unrecognizable in the first set and Kalinin cruised to a 6-0 victory after just 23 minutes.

In the second set, the situation was much more balanced. Emma saved two match points at 5-6 but couldn’t take the game to the decider (she served twice at 6-5 in the tiebreak, but lost both points), and Angelina hit the decider.

In the second round, Angelina Kalinina will play Olena Ostapenko (the 8th favorite of the Qatar competition).
