Current paolini champions and Sarah Erranisown under the third number, played from the score 2: 4 in the second set and defeated the duo “Neututarlok” – Mirri Andreeva and Diana Schneider with a score of 6: 4, 6: 4 in the first semi -finals of a paired tournament.
It is symbolic that Paolini, who, the day before, made a single category finals, became the first tennis player to reach the finals in both digits in Rome after her partner Errani, who did so in 2014.
Now Paolini will try to repeat the achievement of another compatriot. In 2014, Erran lost both finals: Sereni Williams in Linoka and Queta Peske / Katarina Srebotnik, withdrawing from that match with Robert Vinci. But in 1985, Rafaella Reye, the only one to Paolini and Errani Italian, who reached the finals in a single and even discharge in the open era-won both titles: Wiki Nelson-Danbar won in a lone, and then paired with Sandra Chekkin.
Since then, only one tennis player has won in Rome, both single, and a paired discharge – Monica Seles in 1990. Then she won Martin Navrailov in the finale of a single category and won a paired title with Helen Celles.
Over the past year, the Italian Erran and Paolini has developed a fundamental rivalry with the “neutral” Andreeva and Schneider. The duets first met in the finals of the Olympic Games in Paris, where the Italians won gold. Since then, the couple has been playing with each other on the Australian Open and in the semifinals of the tournament in the do not. Now the account of personal meetings 3: 1 in favor of Italian.
Forza !! 🇮🇹 @Sarairrani and @jasminepaolini Advance to the Final with A 6-4, 6-4 Win Over Andreeva and Shnaider in Rome!#Ibi25 Pic.twitter.com/pwy0a2s0lh
