Sakkari, now up to No.3 in the world, will next meet Diane Parry or Xiy Wang. It should be noted that as part of the Ukraine Peace Tournament held at the USTA facility in New York, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Maria Sakkari joined forces to raise money for the country. Stefanos and Maria played against Beretini and Zavatska and during the match, the Greek star gave Sakkari a difficult task.
He invited her to serve to the Italian without a return ball and if she did he would donate $10,000 to the Ukrainians.
As announced by the USTA, the evening’s total revenue is in the $2 million range.
