Julia Riera: a Rabat semifinalist who carried Argentina into the top 100
Julia Riera announced herself on the WTA Tour by reaching the 2023 Rabat semifinals in her first main draw. The Argentine beat former top-ten player Kristina Mladenovic plus seeded opponents Mayar Sherif and Yulia Putintseva during that run. She made her top-100 debut in April 2024, peaked at No. 93 and entered the Roland Garros and Wimbledon main draws that season. Riera also owns a WTA 125 doubles title from Montevideo with Maria Lourdes Carle and won the W75 Vacaria singles title in 2026, reinforcing the clay-court foundation behind her rise.
