Ukrainian Diana Yastremskaya won an incredibly difficult match at the start of the tournament in Luxembourg.

In the first round of the competition, a Ukrainian in three sets defeated Barbara Lepchenko, who represents the USA.

The game lasted for three hours and ended in victory for Dayan in a tiebreaker in the decisive game - 6: 2, 6: 7 (10:12), 7: 6 (7: 5).

The most dramatic was exactly the last set.

Ukrainian “burned” 2: 5, but managed to level the score and transfer the fight to a tie-break, where she gnawed a ticket to the next stage of the competition.

In the second round, Yastremskaya will play with the 13th racket of the world and the second Spaniard seeded at the tournament Garbine Mugurus.

Recall, recently, the Ukrainian woman won the WTA series tournament for the first time in her career and improved her position in the world ranking.
