Camilla Rosatello
🧱 A tour veteran mostly active on the ITF circuit. Ranked No. 273 and enters with a 10–5 record on clay in 2025.

🔍 Match Breakdown

Baptiste brings a higher ceiling and more complete toolkit to this matchup. Her athleticism, power, and recent form give her a clear edge, especially against a steady but limited opponent like Rosatello.

Rosatello will look to neutralize with length and spin, aiming to wear Baptiste down with clay-court attrition. But the Italian doesn’t possess the weapons to take time away from the American or turn defense into offense consistently.

If Baptiste avoids early rhythm hiccups or unforced error patches, she should take control and impose her game with minimal resistance.

🔮 Prediction

Baptiste’s current level suggests a straightforward win. Rosatello may compete early, but the American’s explosiveness and confidence should tilt the match firmly in her favor.
🧩 Prediction: Hailey Baptiste in 2 sets — with one of them potentially one-sided.
