“The tiebreak of the deciding set of the match between Ana Bogdan and Lesia Tsurenko is the only one to appear on the list of longest tiebreaks in women’s matches.
The previous record was 36 points, scored in the first set of a match between Denisa Allertova and Johanna Konta at Roland Garros 2015. The match between Ana Bogdan and Lesia Tsurenko holds first place overall as well, but tied with a men’s tour game.
This is the confrontation between Andy Roddick and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, from the Australian Open 2007, which had a tie-break of 38 points in the first set
” notes the Romanian publication Digi Sport.
Tsurenko’s next opponent
Lesia Tsurenko’s next opponent at Wimbledon was 4th seed Jessica Pegula.
A match against Pegula is tough enough, but with over three hours on the court in her last match, Tsurenko had little chance of winning and she lost in two stes.
Yet, after his run, Tsurenko should still earn a lot of money, which he says will be donated to help Ukraine.”When the conflict broke out, I considered quitting tennis and going to my country as a volunteer to help out.
But Dolgopolov called me and told me that I had to keep playing and that was the best way to help Ukraine. I’ve never played for money and I don’t plan to do so now, so I’m going to give away almost everything I earn in tournaments to help my country,” Tsurenko said in early June. news for Tsurenko is that his elbow discomfort didn’t cause him problems at Wimbledon:” It’s amazing because at the end of last year I was told that the inflammation had reached the bone and that I had to think about retiring.
Tennis is my big passion, so I took some rest and worked on rebalancing my whole body. This season, I have a lot of pain at night, but during the day I am fine, which allows me to train and compete,” she said.
