Jelena Ostapenko keep on rising!
The Latvian won a fantastic match against Elina Svitolina after converting her 8th match point to book a ticket for the Wimbledon quarters where she will face Venus Williams.
The American is playing a dropped just 1 set in the entire tournament so far; Venus dismissed rising star Ana Konjuh in the 4th round with a fierce 6-3 6-2 scoreline.
I will enjoy the match against Venus. OSTAPENKO
In the post-match press conference, the Latvian didn’t hide her satisfaction for his performance to comment
“In the first couple of rounds, I wasn’t playing my best and I was fighting,” she said in an exclusive video interview, “but I feel like every match I’m getting better and better.
After the French Open, I had more pressure when I was playing and every match was tough. But I’m really happy I dealt with the pressure and here I am in the quarters.
She’s a great player who has won many Grand Slams, and I’m just going to go on court, enjoy the match, and show my best.”
Jelena and Venus have never played each other so far.
