The Ukrainian national team will play in the Billie Jean King Cup match against the Americans in an incomplete team.

The Ukraine women’s tennis team will not find a replacement for Elina Svitolina for the Billie Jean King Cup match against the USA, and will play in an incomplete team. This came to light after the final application of the national teams was published.

From this it was learned that our country in singles will be represented by Dayana Yastremskaya and Katarina Zavatskaya, as well as sisters Nadezhda and Lyudmila Kichenok in a pair.

Recall that initially Marta Kostyuk and Elina Svitolina were in the squad, and Zavatskaya was listed as a replacement. At first it was learned that Kostyuk would not take part in the duel, instead they managed to call Yastremskaya.

However, at the last moment, Ukraine’s first racket also refused to participate. Svitolina has no time to find a replacement, and therefore the Ukrainians will play against the United States without a spare tennis player. The Billie Jean King Cup match between the USA and Ukraine will take place on April 15-16.
