On the 14th local time, Paulini swept Wei Sijia, a young Chinese opponent who advanced from the qualifying round, 6:0 and 6:4. So far, Italy's fourth seed has won with her signature smile and advanced to the second round of the women's singles at the 2025 Australian Open.

"Of course, I am very happy. Playing the first round is not always easy, my serve is quite stable and I am happy to be back in Australia. The late bloomer did not emerge until last year, reaching the round of 16 for the first time at the Australian Open, and started her golden career, reaching the French Open, Wimbledon Championships, the Paris Olympics women's doubles gilding, and reaching the WTA finals. Now back at Melbourne Park, the 29-year-old only spent 1 hour and 13 minutes teaching Wei Sijia, who made her Grand Slam debut, a lesson.

Paulini, who is only 1.63m tall, revealed that when she came here last year, she originally just wanted to get off to a good start on the Grand Slam stage, "and then it happened, and I was relieved." I love the event, the city, and of course the people. The Italian sister, who is good at fighting big with small things, will compete with Mexican opponent Sarazua for a ticket to the third round of the women's singles in the second round.
