Czech tennis player Barbora Krejčíková celebrates advancing to the finals of the prestigious tournament in Dubai.
Less than a year ago, tennis fans would probably have a smile on their faces at the thought that the excellent deblist Barbora Krejčíková will be in the finals at one of the big tournaments in the 1000 category – in singles.
The former trustee of Jana Novotná made a huge performance leap and gained great respect with her clever play. This week, she also won the Grand Slam champions Ostapenkova and Kuznetsova or the muscular Greek Maria Sakkari, who has been around the TOP 20 in the world rankings for a long time.
However, the other half of the spider from which Muguraz came out was optically much heavier. The world number 16, which was already the first in the world, shows a really sensational form at the beginning of the year. For the second time in a week, she defeated Belarus by Sabalenkova, the canary won the discovery of last year by Swiatek from Poland, and in the semifinals she defeated the unpleasant Belgian Mertens 2: 0.
Muguruza’s breathtaking record from the beginning of the season – 17: 4. By far the most wins on the circuit. However, Conchita Martinez’s charge is missing the title in 2021. Will a Czech player deprive her of it for the second time in a short time?
