Greece secured the qualification for the final of the United Cup. Maria Sakkari won with an impressive score of 2:0 (6:1, 7:5) Eliza Mertens, and our country leads Belgium with a score of 2:1.
Considering that Greece needed two wins to take the top spot, the goal was reached as Stefanos Tsitsipas also won yesterday.

Sakkari left no room for Mertens. In the first set, she… equalized, and in the second she faced strong resistance, in the end she played brilliantly and won.
Then Stefanos Sakellaridis took over Zizou Bergs 2-1 (5-7, 6-1, 6-3), apotheosis from the rest of the Greek team.
What a victory!
