| American Taylor Townsend in Round 2 of 2019 Oracle Challenger Series-Houston. |
The 2019 Oracle Challenger Series-Houston has met its own challenges with an unusually cold weather factor that has caused significant match suspensions and delays, but it hasn't prevented players from bringing their best efforts when they've been able to hit the courts.
On Wednesday, clad in warm attire, No. 2 seed American Taylor Townsend defeated Anna Danilina of Kazakhstan 6-2, 6-4. Townsend continued her very strategic gameplay that entails a net game not commonly seen, at least not the way it's brought by Townsend. This is the first event she's played since her ultra fab run at the 2019 U.S. Open where she reached the round of 16.
On Thursday morning Townsend is scheduled to play fellow American Caroline Dolehide.
Unable to overcome their opponents, tenth seed Donald Young was defeated by qualifier Alexis Galarneau 6-3, 3-6, 0-6, ninth seed Whitney Osuigwe was taken out by Hungarian Dalma Galfi 5-7, 6-2, 2-6, and Mari Osaka of Japan was greatly dominated by sixth seed American Catherine McNally 2-6, 0-6.
