Olena Rybakina, who won a Wimbledon Grand Slam last month, was defeated by Daria Kasatkina 6-1, 2-6, 0-6 in the first round of the WTA 500 tournament in San Jose.
The Wimbledon champion confidently controlled the first set, but lost 12 of the last 14 games played against Daria Kasatkina and left the American tournament.
After the match, the Kazakhstan player said she could not prepare as well as she would have liked for the “tough” season due to the limited time she had after winning Wimbledon 2022.
The Mubadala Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose is a WTA 500 tournament that will take place from August 1 to 7, 2022 with a prize pool of $757,900.
