The American last played a competitive match at the Merida Open, and will be looking for a successful comeback on Tuesday. The winner of this unseeded contest will face No. 4 seed Magdalena Frech in the pre-quarterfinals.

The 32-year-old experienced her highest moment when she won the 2017 US Open by beating Madison Keys. A former World No. 3 with eight singles championships to her name, Stephens has a 0-4 record in 2025 so far. In her most recent encounter back in February, she won merely 47% points on first serve and 28% points on second serve en route to a straight sets defeat against Petra Martic.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sloane Stephens is the winner of the Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award.<br><br>Through her work with her foundation, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SS_FDN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@SS_FDN<\/a>, she has impacted more than 15,000 youth across the nation. <br><br>Ciara presented her the award at the 2025 ESPYS. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rQ2RnsBqCK\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/rQ2RnsBqCK<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The Tennis Letter (@TheTennisLetter) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheTennisLetter\/status\/1945692355233009946?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 17, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Coming through qualifying with two straight sets wins, Lucrezia Stefanini will be hoping to keep the momentum going.

Her last main draw victory on tour came at the Prague Open, where she reached the Round of 16 before losing to eventual champion Marie Bouzkova.

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda. Born and raised in Bengaluru, India, sport was my safe space right from my childhood. After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport. And if you\u2019re a fan of Roger Federer, Lionel Messi and\/or Stephen Curry - I\u2019m your guy. \u00a0","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sankalphk","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sankalp-hk-660254215"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/sankalp\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628836"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=628836"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628836\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":628843,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628836\/revisions\/628843"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/628841"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=628836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=628836"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=628836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
