Russian tennis player Daria Kasatkina couldn’t resist Zheng Qingwen in the quarterfinals of the Abu Dhabi tournament.
Kasatkina, seeded under the first number, could only win three matches in total in straight sets. The match lasted 1h19, the Russian won once and committed 3 double faults.
Thus, Kasatkina failed to qualify for the semi-finals, which in this case would have become Russian – Zheng’s next opponent will be either Veronika Kudermetova or Lyudmila Samsonova.
