The top 10 highlights and significances of Paulini s victory in the Rome final

This is the most wonderful day in Jasmine Paolini's career: she not only won the championship trophy in front of her hometown, but also created history, becoming the first Italian women's singles champion since 1985, and the first Italian female player to win the championship in Rome since 1950. The following are the top ten highlights and significance of this 2025 Italian Open Women's Singles Final and Paulini's championship:

1. A belated dream-realization moment

29-year-old Paulini's first WTA 1000-level champion in his career was born in his hometown Rome. This is the third WTA singles champion in her career and the most important one.

2. Break the championship drought that has been blocked by the local dust for more than 70 years

• She is the first Italian women's singles player to win the Italian Open since Rafaela Regini in 1985;

• She is also the first local female player to win the championship in Rome since 1950, and her historical status is self-evident.

3. The "Smiling Driving Walker" has an energy explosion

Height is only 1 meter 57 (about 5 feet 2 inches), and Paulini is not favored for many years. But she defeated the label of "talent" with her explosive power, running ability and tenacity, and was a typical player with a hard-working and skilled skill.

4. Continuation of the highlight season

• She has made multiple breakthroughs in the past 12 months:

• Both the French Open and Wimbledon in 2024 both scored in the second week

• Lead Italy to win the Billy Jane Gold Cup championship

• Partner with Elani to win the Paris Olympic women's doubles gold medal

• Now achieve the sweetest singles breakthrough in Rome

5. A complete victory over Goof in the final, almost impeccable

• Paulini defeated Coco Goof, the third largest in the world, and performed calmly and mature

• She scored 12 winning points in the game, 20 unforced mistakes; while Goof has as many as 55 unforced mistakes, and is in a bad state

• Especially in the big scene, Paulini was in excellent mood and became more courageous as he played in the second consecutive game. After narrowly defeating Zheng Qinwen in the semi-finals (3.5 hours + 82 mistakes), Gao Fu continued to slip in the finals - she herself admitted: "She played better today and deserved this victory."

7. The pinnacle of historical atmosphere and emotional resonance

Paulini shed tears after the game, slapped her father high, sang "We Are the Champions" with the team, kissed the trophy, greeted the president - everything was like an Italian fantasy script.

8. From "Crownless Player" to "Local Hero"

Polini's last championship dates back to the 2024 Dubai Station. Despite the continuous breakthroughs in the past year, I have never been able to win the championship and it has finally been successful today.

9. The victory made a big boost to her confidence in clay - she is no longer the "dark horse" last year, but a real candidate for the championship.

10. Post-match quotations are moving

• "It is a pure joy to hold this trophy at the door of your house."

• "I watched this game with my dad when I was a child. Now my dad is in the stands. I don't know if he is crying..."

• "I am enjoying this moment, it's a wonderful day."
