The Ukrainian tennis player somewhat surprisingly lost to Barbora Kreychikova in the first round of the tournament.

Lesya Tsurenko advanced to the second round of Roland Garros. At the beginning, the Ukrainian tennis player sensationally, in two sets, defeated the 13th racket of the world, the representative of the Czech Republic, Barbora Kreychikova.

Our sportswoman started the match with confidence, removing the opponent’s two serves from the first set and leaving the set with her 6:2.

In the second game, Kreichikova seemed to wake up, remembering that she was considered the unconditional favorite of the match. The Czech also took two of his serves from Tsurenko and led 3-0, but that was the end of his exploits. Lesya again took the initiative, rebounded and grabbed the victory 6:4. The Ukrainian spent 89 minutes for the entire match.

Note that this is the first meeting of tennis players. In the next round of the French Major, Tsurenko will play against the winner of the Lin Zhu – Lauren Davis confrontation.
