Tennis player Marta Kostyuk celebrated her birthday with her debut victory at the base of “Wimbledon”.
Kyiv. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – June 30, 2021 – Sport
The victim of Kyiv was the 17th seed Kiki Bertens from the Netherlands – 6: 3, 6: 4.
The tennis players spent 1 hour and 20 minutes on the court. Kostyuk took a break in each set and played six breakpoints on her serve. The 19-year-old Ukrainian now has at least one victory in each of the four “majors”.
It is noteworthy that the former fourth racket of the world Bertens plans to end his career this year (in 2020, Bertens underwent surgery on the Achilles tendon). This season, the 29-year-old tennis player played only 8 matches and won only 2.
In the second round, Marta Kostyuk will meet the winner of the match Anastasia Sevastova – Zarina Diaz, who occupy 56th and 101st place in the WTA, respectively.
