The SP Open singles draw intensifies in São Paulo, Brazil, as Round 2 matches get underway. Elina Avanesyan and Alina Charaeva are scheduled to play on Quadra 2 on Thursday at 11:00 AM EDT, with a spot in the next round on the line. Moving past the opening round is one thing, but establishing a quick rhythm on this court will be the immediate challenge as the tournament pressure builds. For these two competitors representing Armenia, the second-round environment on Quadra 2 will test who can best control their serve and return. With a place in the later stages of this WTA tournament at stake, managing the court conditions in São Paulo is the clear priority for both Avanesyan and Charaeva.
