In the first semifinal of the women's singles match of the Rome Masters held earlier today, the No. 6 seed Paulini played against the big dark horse Stiens. In the game, Paulini saved two inventory reversals and defeated his opponent while falling behind 1-4 in the first set, and entered the Masters final held in the local area for the first time in her career. She also became the third Italian local player to reach the Rome final.

In this game, Paulini was used to slowing down and was soon defeated and secured by Steins to take the lead. However, with the hustle and bustle support of the audience, Paulini reversed again. After 1-4, she chased points continuously, and finally reversed the score against Steins two inventory counts, and won 7-5 in the first set. There was no suspense in the second set, and Steines, who failed, quickly won 1-6. With the victory of the game, Paulini reached the final for the eighth time in his career, and also entered the WTA Class 1000 or higher for the fourth time after Dubai, Roland Garros and Wimbledon last year. She will strive to be the first local champion since Rafira Reggie since 1985.

Now, Paulini will wait for the winner between the fourth seed Gao Fu and the eighth seed Zheng Qinwen. The game is extremely fierce. The two sides have entered the decisive set, and the decisive set starts with each other, and the suspense of the game remains!
