For the 93rd racket of the world Rakhimova, participation in the "thousandth" in Madrid is a very significant motivation and in the first qualifying round the Russian looked very cool.
Camilla reached the semifinals of the WTA tournament in Bogota this season on clay, and a stubborn struggle performed by Rakhimova in this match would be quite natural.
Running in the last match in the qualifying stage was unconvincing. Despite the confident victory, the Romanian made 8 double mistakes, which is a lot for two sets. At the same time, Irina-Camelia made unforced mistakes at the reception.
Camilla needs to gain a foothold in the top-100 and in each of her matches, the Russian looks extremely collected. This coefficient for Rakhimova's victory looks overstated.
