Ukrainian tennis player will play with the second seed in the quarterfinals of Roland Garros-2023
Second racket of the world Arina Sobolenko commented on the upcoming match with the former first racket of Ukraine Elina Svitolina in the quarterfinals Roland Garros 2023.
“Here in Paris she plays very good tennis, moves well. Like other players, she runs a lot and returns a lot of balls back, and I just have to be patient and wait for the perfect shot to complete the rally. Do not hurry. Just get on the court, fight and show your best tennis.”
Earlier, Sobolenko, who plays in a neutral status, before the match with Marta Kostyuk, said that the Ukrainian hates her. Later, after the fight of the third round, the second seed of the tournament did not come to the official press conference, answering questions only from certain media. Also, the Belarusian athlete refused to answer questions from Ukrainian journalists.
Svitolina defeated Russian Daria Kasatkina in the 1/8 finals. The duel with Sobolenko is scheduled for June 6. Tennis players have previously met twice among themselves and won one victory each.
