Rakhimova Still to Win a Match
Kamilla Rakhmova’s season began in Brisbane with a match against Lamens herself and she was soundly beaten 6-2, 6-4. Since then things have gone from bad to worse for the Russian.
She failed to qualify for the Adelaide International in the following week and was then sent packing in the first round of the Australian Open by Liudmilla Samsonova.
Shifting her focus to the Middle East, Rakhimova has featured in all three tournaments there, playing in the qualifiers of the Abu Dhabi Open, Qatar Open and WTA Dubai but failed to qualify for either of them.
Losses to Cristina Bucsa, Daria Saville and Eva Lys point to a big turnaround that’s needed for Rakhimova.
