Nadia Podoroska is having an outstanding performance at the French Open. The upcoming Argentinian players had to start her run from the qualifications, and she reached the quarters in Paris after winning 7 matches and dropping just 1 set on the way. Nadia is not used at all at playing on these stages. Before this French slam, she managed to qualify for a major main draw only once in her career and that was back in 2016 at the US Open when she lost in the 1st round to Annika Beck.
Podoroska’s origins and boyfriend
Nadia was born on the 10th of February 1997 in Rosario (Argentina) to Irene and Marcelo, and she has an older brother called Ivan and a younger sister called Priscilla. Nadia’s surname comes from her Ukrainian grandparents, but she speaks not Ukrainian or Russian whatsoever. Nadia started to play tennis at the Club AtlĂ©tico Fisherton and she enjoys a great relationship with Argentinian tennis legend Gabriela Sabatini. In 2018 she moved to Alicante to be closer to the European tournaments. She is used to playing mainly at ITF level with a good degree of success. This year she has already conquered the competitions in Malibu’, Petit-Burg and Saint-Malo.
There are no reports about a possible boyfriend for Nadia that she seems to be fully committed to the sport.
