The Ukrainian tennis player easily defeated his first rival in prestigious WTA competitions.
Marta Kostyuk is confident of winning the first round of a major clay tournament of the WTA 1000 series in Madrid. In the opening match, the Ukrainian rival was a talented Danish athlete Clara Tauson, who at the age of 19 occupies 41st place in the world rankings.
However, the young Scandinavian could not stand against Kostyuk. In the 86th minute, the Ukrainian easily defeated his opponent 6: 3, 6: 2. Remember that opponents complete an ace in battles and make three double faults each.
In the second round, Kostyuk will play the winning pair Emma Radukanu – Teresa Martintsova.
