Win over Krejcikova a confidence boost for French Open, says Sabalenka FMTNews FMTSports
Belarus’ Aryna Sabalenka returns the ball to Czech Republic’s Barbora Krejcikova during the 2nd round of the WTA Stuttgart tennis match.
Sabalenka defeated Krejcikova 6-2, 6-3 in one hour and 15 minutes on Wednesday, becoming the first player to book her spot in the quarterfinals. “It’s tough but an interesting challenge to play the first match against a Grand Slam champion,” Australian Open winner Sabalenka, who received a bye in the opening round, told reporters.
“I think it’s a good preparation before the bigger tournament. You play only tough matches from the first round, so I think it’s a good tournament to play before going into the big tournaments.”
