Elina SVITOLINA: “I don’t know why Sobolenko is waiting for me at the wax”
Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina (No. 192 WTA) Lost to world second racket Arina Sobolenko in the French Open Tennis 1/4 final.
After the end of the meeting, the world’s second racket defiantly waited for him in the handshake net, but Elina didn’t even look at him.
“I don’t know why Sobolenko is waiting for me in the network. I think I’ve made my position clear enough.
Did it exacerbate the situation in the stands? Unfortunately I think so.
My first reaction: “What are you doing?” Because I spoke clearly. Maybe he doesn’t use social media during tournaments. I said several times that I would not shake hands. And she played with Martha in the first round. So everything is simple, ”said the Ukrainian.
Let’s also mention that after that, the fans in the stands on Philippe Chatrier’s field booed the Ukrainian.
