Coco Gauff

Marta Kostiuk awansowała do półfinału turnieju WTA 500 w Stuttgarcie! Ukrainka po wymagającym meczu rozprawiła się z trzecią rakietą świata Coco Gauff 3:6, 6:4, 7:6(6). Ukrainka w trakcie piątkowego starcia miała kilka trudnych momentów okupionych łzami, ale ostatecznie zdołała sięgnąć po wygraną dopiero przy ósmej piłce meczowej. W półfinale Kostiuk zagra z pogromczynią Aryny Sabalenki!

Marta Kostiuk przystępowała do meczu z Coco Gauff po pokonaniu Laury Siegemund w pierwszej i Qinwen Zheng w drugiej rundzie. Wyeliminowanie chińskiej zawodniczki udowodniło, że Ukrainka jest ostatnio w bardzo dobrej formie. 27. zawodniczka rankingu WTA w połowie marca odpadła w Indian Wells dopiero w półfinale z Igą Świątek, a tydzień wcześniej dotarła do finału turnieju w San Diego.

Dobry początek pierwszego seta Coco Gauff

Z kolei Coco Gauff nie ma najlepszej formy w 2024 r. Amerykanka odpadła ostatnio w Miami już w trzeciej rundzie, a wcześniej przegrała ćwierćfinał w Dubaju, czy półfinał Indian Wells. Trzecia rakieta świata chce zapomnieć o tej passie na kortach twardych, rozpoczynając udanie turniej w Stuttgarcie.

Gauff z problemami, ale ostatecznie pokonała swoją rodaczkę Sachię Vickery 6:3, 4:6, 7:5 w drugiej rundzie niemieckiego turnieju (miała wolny los w pierwszej rundzie ze względu na swój ranking). Piątkowe z Martą Kostiuk Gauff rozpoczęła bardzo dobrze od wygranego własnego serwisu i od przełamania Ukrainki.

Kostiuk jednak szybko odpowiedziała przełamaniem i po chwili po wygraniu gema przy własnym podaniu wyrównała stan pierwszego seta na 2:2. Po następnych dwóch gemach wygranych przez serwujące przyszedł kryzysowy moment w serwisie obu tenisistek.

Przegrana partia i łzy Marty Kostiuk

Po trzech gemach przegranych przez serwujące Coco Gauff objęła prowadzenie 5:3 i serwowała po pierwszego seta. Po wyrównanym gemie na przewagi Amerykanka zdołała wykorzystać drugą piłkę setową i wygrała pierwszą partię 6:3.

Po przegranym secie na twarzy Ukrainki pojawiły się łzy. Nie wiadomo jednak, czym były one spowodowane, choć w trakcie pierwszej partii Kostiuk wzięła przerwę medyczną z powodu drobnego urazu stopy.

Psuły serwisy na potęgę. Odrodzenie Marty Kostiuk

Druga partia to już festiwal przegranych serwisów. Najpierw gema przy swoim serwisie przegrała Kostiuk, by po chwili odrobić stratę i wyrównać na 1:1. Ukrainka nie poszła jednak za ciosem i po przegranym trzecim gemie przegrywała 1:2.

Po krótkiej przerwie niewiele się zmieniło i serwujące nadal przegrywały swoje podania, aż tę koszmarną serię zatrzymała w szóstym gemie Coco Gauff. Ameryka wykorzystała swój serwis i powiększyła prowadzenie do wyniku 4:2.

Amerykanka nie utrzymała jednak dobrego momentu i kolejne trzy gemy wygrała odrodzona Marta Kostiuk, obejmując prowadzenie 5:4. Ukrainka wykorzystała dobrą passę i po koncertowej grze… przełamała Gauff, wygrywając drugiego seta 6:4.

W decydującym trzecim secie obie zawodniczki rozpoczęły od wygranych serwisów, jednak w trzecim gemie Coco Gauff przełamała Ukrainkę i objęła prowadzenie 2:1. Wydawało się, że Amerykanka utrzyma dobrą grę do końca seta, jednak w szóstym gemie niespodziewanie straciła gema serwisowego i zrobiło się 3:3.

Zacięta walka i tie-break

Kolejne trzy gemy wygrywały serwujące i Marta Kostiuk objęła prowadzenie 5:4 po wygranym gemie serwisowym. Później jednak Gauff wygrała dwa gemy i stanęła przed szansą wygrania meczu przy własnym gemie serwisowym.

Niespodziewanie Kostiuk przetrwała napór i doprowadziła do tie-breaka. W nim po dużej dramaturgii wygrała Ukrainka 8:6.

Coco Gauff w sobotnim półfinale zagra z Marketą Vondrousovą. Czeszka niespodziewanie wyeliminowała w piątek Arynę Sabalenkę. Wiceliderka rankingu uległa wynikiem 6:3, 3:6, 5:7.
