At the start of the prestigious WTA 500 tournament, Marta had to meet her compatriot.
The Ukrainian derby marks the start of the prestigious WTA 500 tennis tournament in Adelaide, Australia. Marta Kostyuk and Angelina Kalinina played against each other.
The younger Kostyuk won the match, defeating his compatriot in two sets. The first game was an intense struggle. It came down to a tiebreaker, where Marta showed herself to be more successful. He took the second without difficulty – 6:1.
WTA. Adelaide. 1/16 finals
Marta Kostyuk (Ukraine) – Angelina Kalinina (Ukraine) – 7:6, 6:1
On 1/8, Kostyuk’s opponent will win the game Marketa Vondrousova – Alexandra Sasnovich.
We remind you that last week Kalinina lost in the first round of the tournament in Brisbane. So, the Ukrainian still does not know the joy of victories in 2024.
