Athletistic / Tennis. Russian tennis player Lyudmila Samsonova (22nd racket in the world) shared her expectations for the upcoming match with the fifth number in the world ranking, the representative of Kazakhstan Elena Rybakina. They will meet in the semi-final of the WTA-1000 tournament in Beijing (China).

“You have to be extremely powerful against Lena. Now I’m fine, I’m ready to play with her,” Samsonova told the WTA press service.

The meeting between Samsonova and Rybakina will take place today, October 7, and will begin no earlier than 11:30 Moscow time. Previously, these tennis players played three matches between themselves and Lyudmila won them all. It’s interesting that they fought each other exclusively on hard court.
