Elina Svitolina meets world number one Iga Sventek in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon 2023
Ukrainian tennis player Lesya Tsurenko commented on the upcoming match Elina Svitolina with the first racket of the world Igoy Sventek.
“Will the fact that Iga is very supportive of the Ukrainians during a full-scale war make this fight harder for Elina? Actually I think it must be nice to play against such people. It is much more difficult to play with her precisely because she is the first racket of the world, she really plays very well and in order to beat her, you need to show very good tennis.
“But, as we see, Elina plays exactly like that. Therefore, we will cheer for Elina, while I thank Iga for her support, but today our whole country will be on Elina’s side.”
Svitolina in the last fight got a strong-willed victory over Victoria Azarenka in three sets. Sventek beat Swiss Belinda Bencic in a tense meeting. In the duel between Iga and Elina, the first set began.
