World rank 442 N.J. raised Amanda Anisimova takes down Rank 100 Paula Badosa in straight sets dispatching Badosa to the departure lounge.
The dogs keep barking in Melbourne AO.
Ironically Amanda took an extended break from tennis last year citing burn out and mental health.
These were the exact same issues experienced by the sidelined Badosa last year.
She’s also been competing here for longer than anyone.
This will be her 9th match in Melbourne. She’s arranging her furniture here.
