The first racket of Ukraine in a difficult struggle was lost to Belarusian tennis player Victoria Azarenka.
Angelina Kalinina stopped competing in the prestigious tennis tournament of the WTA 500 series in Adelaide, Australia. In the first round, the Ukrainian faced a tough test in front of former world number one Victoria Azarenka.
Unfortunately, our athlete cannot win, and he can only blame himself for this. So, in the first set, Angelina led with a score of 5:1 and did not convert 5 set points, and gave the game to her opponent in a tie-break. With a similar score of 7:6, the representative of Belarus took the second set. Angelina had 27 unforced errors in the match against 9 of her opponent.
Remember that this is the first meeting of tennis players, but Azarenka is a very uncomfortable opponent for the Ukrainians. In their matches, the Belarusian leads with a score of 24-2.
