Dayana Yastremska and Eugenie Bouchard encountered during the US Open qualifications, and the final match was not like a typical tennis match, demonstrating that the clashes of recent years still exist. In a way, Bouchard was defeated in three sets by the Ukrainian player (6-1, 4-6, 6-4).
The 23-year-old Dayana didn’t shake hands with Bouchard after the match and she greeted the chair umpire and went straight to her bench. It’s a gesture that hasn’t been ignored, but this time, the athlete wasn’t motivated by the war.
After defeating the Ukrainian in the most recent Mutua Madrid Open, Genie responded to Twitter in the following words: “There is something special about playing with doped people in Madrid.”
By posting this, she not only referred to Yastremska but also to Maria Sharapova by winning against her in 2017. Yastremska was merely given a temporary suspension until the outcome of the case and was no longer charged with doping in this instance.
