The tennis players had their first face-to-face match. The meeting lasted approximately 1.5 hours. Svitolina had 6 break points out of 9, and her opponent 5 out of 14.

Sarasua, who turns 23 today, made his second-round debut in the major leagues. The 178th racket in the world was played once against an opponent in the top 20 ratings.

Svitolina won the match for the fourth time, in which she lost a set with a “shuttlecock” (the last time, in Rome in 2018 in a duel with Daria Kasatkina). The Ukrainian will perform for the sixth consecutive year in the third round at Roland Garros. Elina Svitolina will play her next match with the Russian Ekaterina Aleksandrova (WTA 31).
