Sakkari: Maria plays Martic in the Leeds semifinals on Saturday afternoon
Petra Martic won 2-0 sets against Clara Towson and meets Maria Sakkari in the semi-finals in Leeds on Saturday afternoon (November 2, around 5 p.m.).
Maria Sakkari (No.7) found out about her opponent in the Leeds semi-final. This is Petra Martic, who defeated Clara Towson 2-0.
The match between the two gymnasts is expected to start around 5 p.m. as it is the second in the program after the other semifinal between Potapova and Vodrusova.
Sakkari and Martic faced off twice more, with the 27-year-old Greek winning both times. The last of these was in the United Cup about a month ago.
32-year-old Martic is an athlete who wants attention. He has reached No. 14 in the world rankings and is now No. 34.
Data will move up a few places after her run at Leeds, which will not be the case for Maria Sakkari as she will not rise above the No.7 from which she started her presence in the tournament.
