Athletistic / Tennis. Andrei Chesnokov, Honored Master of Sports of Russia in tennis, spoke about the victory of Russian Veronika Kudermetova (19th racket in the world) over the second Polish world number one Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals of the WTA-500 tournament in Tokyo (Japan) .

“It’s not clear how this could happen. Kudermetova’s victory over Swiatek is a real sensation. It’s generally something unreal. I haven’t seen the match itself, but it’s something that comes out of fantasy. I don’t even know how to comment on all this now.

The fact that Veronica beat Swiatek is simply incredible. Swiatek barely loses. Yes, she can sometimes lose to Sabalenka, Gauff, but she beats the others quite comfortably. “I have no words right now,” Chesnokov said in “Championship.”

To reach the final of the tournament in the capital of Japan, Veronika Kudermetova will fight with another Russian, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.
