Athletistic / Tennis. Russian tennis player Daria Kasatkina (15th racket in the world) qualified for the semi-finals of the WTA-500 tournament in Adelaide (Australia). To do this, the 26-year-old Russian did not even need to enter the field.

In the quarterfinals of the competition in Adelaide, Kasatkina was supposed to fight with German Laura Siegemund (89th world ranking), but she refused to continue fighting at the tournament due to illness.

In the semi-final, Kasatkina will meet the winner of the match between her compatriot Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (world number 59) and American Jessica Pegula (number 5 WTA).
