The defender of the Colsanitas Cup title, María Camila Osorio, continues to give something to talk about in Bogotá in April.
Not only did she debut with victory against Switzerland's Ylena In-Albon on Tuesday, but this Wednesday, March 6, she defeated the duo formed by Russian Amina Anshba and Valentini Grammatikopoulou together with Brazil's Beatriz Haddad Maia in the doubles mode of the Colombian tennis competition.
It should be remembered that Osorio Serrano and Haddad Maia are double seeds 1 and 2 in the individual mode, but in the doubles category the South Americans managed to qualify in the semifinals after winning in two sets [6 (4) - 7 (7)] and [5-7] at 4:00 p.m. on the central court of Country Club in Bogotá.
The Russian-Greek duo became strong from the start with several breaks in the serve of the Colombian-Brazilian pair. The Europeans confirmed their winning potential from the next game by forcing a tie-break and in the definition, the North Santander was very attentive to the edge of the mesh to sentence and leave Anshba and Grammatikopoulou without opportunities in the first set.
Already in the second set the match was quite even. Osorio and Haddad managed to break the score in game 11 after a 5-5. They broke and were left with serve for the match, a situation that they did not waste and would consume their second straight victory after eliminating the prevailing champion pair.
In total, the match lasted one hour and 47 minutes and left Osorio and Haddad installed in the best four couples round of the women's tennis open in Bogotá. The next challenge for both tennis players will be to face the winners of the key between Astra Sharma (Australia) and Aldila Sutijiadi (Indonesia) vs. Irina Bara (Romania) and Ekaterine Gorgodze (Georgia) who will play this Thursday, April 7 at 12:45pm.
This is how the qualifying table of the 2022 Copa Colsanitas was in the doubles category until April 6:
On the other hand, María Camila is still alive in the individual category of the championship and on April 7 she will face Turkish competitor İpek Öz for the round of 16 of the tournament.
The third set of Osorio's debut match took place in which he looked confidently to control the onslaught of his Swiss opponent Ylena In-Albon. In 28 minutes of play, the European woman informed the umpire of the game of her decision not to continue in the match any longer, thus formalizing her withdrawal from the competition, as happened to Maria Camila in her last professional match in the women's individual category on 10 March at the Indian Wells Open against Bulgaria's Aliaksandra Sasnovich.
This was Osorio's debut in the first round after the retirement of Switzerland's Ylena In-Albon and the end of her first match:
The matches of María Camila Osorio and the other participants of the 2022 Colsanitas Cup can be seen through the Star Plus signal and DirecTV Sports Colombia until April 10.
