Elina Svitolina beat Russia's best tennis player on the prestigious Roland Garros tournament
Sports commentators say Elina used any opportunity to attack. For reaching the semi -finals, Elina Svitolina will play with the winner of the couple Sloan Stevens (USA, №30 WTA) - Arina Sobolenko (Belarus, # 2 WTA). Earlier, Elina Svolin and Dariya Kasatkin met at the court six times, and the Ukrainian has never lost. At a press conference, Svitolin said that she was inspired by the experience of other women who returned to the big sport after the baby was born.
But she joked that she was not sure that she would return to the court if she has a second baby. Earlier, Elina Svitolina won Russian Anna Blinka and refused to press her hand after victory. The tennis player Marta Kostyuk also did, refusing to greet Belarusian Arina Sobolenko. Elina Svitolina returned to the court after the birth of her daughter Sky. The girl's father is a French Tennis star Gael Montis. The couple lives in Monaco.
And Dariya Kasatkin, although he was in favor of Russia, she said last year that she wanted to give up the Russian passport. She now lives in Spain. The tennis player made a caing-out, saying that she meets with girls. And when asked if the girl has now, she answered the affirmative and posted a photo with Russian skater Natalia Zabiyako, who lives in Canada. In the State Duma, Kasatkina's statement caused a flurry of indignation.
