Into first-ever semifinal

January 11, 2021

Kostyuk won 0-6, 6-1, 6-4 over Sara Sorribes Tormo in the quarterfinals of Abu Dhabi on Monday.

ANALYSIS
Kostyuk overcame a 24-minute thrashing in the first set to reach the first semifinal of her career at just 18 years old. The young Ukrainian, ranked No. 99, has benefited from a somewhat favorable draw this week, not having to face a seeded opponent en route to the semis. That trend will continue next when she faces No. 46-ranked Veronika Kudermetova for the first time.
