The Ukrainian tennis player overcame the struggling hurdle in the first round of the Grand Slam tournament.
Marta Kostyuk is now celebrating her 20th birthday. On this important day, the Ukrainian tennis player has to start at Wimbledon 2022. The opponent in the first round is the hostess Cathy Swan.
Confidently our athlete started the first set, took the opponent’s serve and immediately took the lead with 3: 1, but then the Ukrainian game went incredibly wrong, and he started beating every game, giving the opponent in the first game of 4: 6.
Fortunately, Kostyuk controlled his emotions and snatched the victory from the British, so he made himself a birthday gift.
The duel, which lasted two hours and nine minutes, ended with a score of 4: 6, 6: 4, 6: 4 in favor of the Ukrainian. Note that during the confrontation, the Ukrainian filed five aces and committed the same number of double faults. In the next round, our athlete will compete with Shuai Zhang from China.
