Virginia Tennis’ Emma Navarro onto 2nd Round in Paris

Emma Navarro wasted no time representing THE University of Virginia and THE United States of America well once play began at Roland-Garros Stadium. A match that was set to start around 6:00 AM Eastern Time on Saturday didn’t begin until 1:04 PM on Sunday due to rain delays on Saturday, which led to the match being postponed until today.

The former Virginia Cavalier was clearly eager to showcase her talent because she made quick work of her opponent, Julia Grabher. Both sets of the match lasted only 31 minutes, and the match lasted slightly over an hour. Emma Navarro breezed through the first set 6-2 and proceeded to skunk the Austrian in the second set 6-0.
