Turkish tennis player Zeynep Sönmez and German racket Tatjana Maria successfully advanced to the second round of the women's doubles category at the French Open (Roland Garros). According to reporting by Cumhuriyet Gazetesi, the pair moved to the next stage after overcoming a difficult first-round match in Paris.
Sönmez has in recent years been counted among the important names representing Turkish tennis in international tournaments. Roland Garros is one of the four major Grand Slam tournaments in the tennis world and requires special technical conditioning due to its clay court surface.
It remains unclear which opponent the Sönmez and Maria pair will face in the second round. This progression achieved mid-season has been welcomed positively by sports opinion in Turkey.
