The 22-year-old from Malmö impressed in his round of 16 final.
The Norwegian Jenny Helene Slettum had no chance against the Swede – who led the match from start to finish.
Smilla Sand won the first set 11-6 and followed it up by winning the second set 11-5.
Sand didn’t slow down. In the third set, the Swede got four match points. The Norwegian saved one – but Sand decided in the next ball and won 11-7.
– So nice. A nice start to the Swedish introduction to the singles game. Really well done, says expert Anna-Carin Ahlquist.
14-year-old British Bly Twomey awaits in the quarter-finals.
– I’m so busy. It will be fun to enter the quarters, says Smilla Sand.
The quarter-finals will be played tomorrow, Wednesday 12.15.
