Overview
- Boisson, who returned Tuesday at the Madrid WTA 1000, fell 6-1, 6-3 to Peyton Stearns in about an hour.
- Match reports said she looked rusty, dropping the first set in roughly 21 minutes and struggling to win points on Stearns’ serve.
- Stearns advanced to face world No. 1 and defending champion Aryna Sabalenka in the next round in Madrid.
- After what she called her most difficult months mentally, Boisson said there was no new physical issue and that she needs court time to regain her feel.
- She plans to stack matches to rebuild, with Rome likely in early May, and she is entered in qualifying for a lower-tier WTA 125 in La Bisbal d’Empordà starting April 27.
