Zhang Shuai of China will go up against Anna-Lena Friedsam of Germany in the second round of the 2025 Open de Limoges on Thursday.
Zhang is a -290 favorite against Friedsam, who reached the semifinal in Angers two weeks ago.
Current Form:
The 36-year-old Zhang continues to prove that age is just a number after collecting her seventh win in eight matches. Off the back of an ITF title in Yokohama, Zhang blasted world’s No.140 Lucrezia Stefanini 6-2, 6-2 to reach the round of 16 at Limoges. Ranked No.87 in the world, Zhang hopes a prolific campaign in this WTA 125 tournament will help her gain enough momentum for the official start of the WTA season in Australia.
Meanwhile, Friedsam targets another deep run in Limoges after reaching the semis in Angers. Friedsam defeated Katarzyna Kawa of Poland 6-3, 6-2 in a sublime performance that saw the German holding all her serves and breaking the Pole three times. Friedsam improved to 17-4 in indoor matches in 2025.
