Russian athlete Anna Kalinska took advantage of Simona Halep’s rejection in the round of 16 of the WTA 250 tournament in Washington on Wednesday evening. With the score 7-5, 2-0 in favor of the Russian, the former world leader asked for a time-out and decided that she could no longer continue the game.
Simona Halep has not yet announced the reasons for withdrawing from the Citi Open in Washington, as it is known that the athlete from Romania has problems in conditions of intense heat.
Anna Kalinska claims that she would not like to beat Simona Halep with a penalty
“I wouldn’t want to win a match like that! I feel sorry for her and I hope that everything is okay with her!
She was number 1 in the world and she is still a very good player who never gives up!
He wasn’t feeling well, and maybe the heat did it!” – Anna Kalinska.
Kalinska will play against Kaya Kanepi (Estonia, 37 WTA and favorite 6) to reach the semi-finals.
