Svitolina devastatingly lost at the start of the tournament in Birmingham

The Ukrainian managed to win only two games in the match against Linda Frugvirtova from the Czech Republic

Former first racket of Ukraine Elina Svitolina lost in the first round of the WTA 250 tournament in the British Birmingham.

The Ukrainian devastatingly lost to Linda Frugvirtova from the Czech Republic. The fight lasted only 53 minutes, during which Elina managed to win only two games.

Svitolina played her first match on grass since her return to professional tennis. Recall that the Ukrainian decided not to use the “special rating” option for Wimbledon 2023, which takes place on grass.

In addition to Svitolina, Angelina Kalinina and Marta Kostyuk are in the main draw of the tournament in Birmingham. Two more Ukrainians, Dayana Yastremska and Lesya Tsurenko, failed to qualify.
