Caroline Garcia played the perfect match on Thursday to advance to the quarterfinals on the indoor clay court at the Kindarena in Rouen. The Frenchwoman made short work of the Slovakian Anna Karolina Schmiedlova (6-1, 6-0 in 47 minutes). This Friday, the French n°1 challenges the Romanian Elena-Gabriela Ruse (killer of Clara Burel) for a place in the semi-finals.
Delighted with her performance against Schmiedlova, Garcia was not bragging. Lucid about the fact that one should not count on such sensations every day, and remembering that his objectives for the clay season are elsewhere.
Caroline Garcia: “We’re going to take all the positives but I’m not going to get excited, I’ve seen others. (…) Matches like today (Thursday) can be counted on the fingers of one hand in a career of 20 years There were very good things on my side, she apparently was not having her day (…)
This is the start of my preparation on clay. My goal is to try to gain strength, play as many matches as possible to put my game in place, continue to progress and train for the next upcoming events, Roland-Garros and the Paris Olympics. “
