Fifteenth-seeded veteran Petra Kvitova, in her 13th appearance at the Miami Open, finally won her first crown here, upsetting seventh-seed Elena Rybakina on Saturday with a marathon tiebreaker in a 7-6 (14), 6-2 win.
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Twelfth-seeded veteran Petra Kvitova, in her 13th appearance at the Miami Open, finally won her first crown here, upsetting seventh-seeded Elena Rybakina on Saturday with a marathon tiebreaker in a 7-6 (14), 6-2 win.
Two-times Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova said she opposed the All England Club's decision to allow Russian and Belarusian players to compete at this year's tournament. Wimbledon last year banned players from Russia and Moscow-allied Belarus after the invasion of Ukraine and the Lawn Tennis Association also barred players from other events in the United Kingdom. However, competitors from the two countries will be able to enter the Grand Slam in July if they compete as "neutral" athletes and comply with certain conditions."First of all, for sure I'm always staying against the war. For sure, I'm just more worried about the Ukrainian people and players," Kvitova told reporters after winning her Miami Open semi-final against Sorana Cirstea.
Petra Kvitova had to recover from a big first-set deficit to come through her semi-final with Sorana Cirstea 7-5 6-4 and set up a Miami Open final against Elena Rybakina. It will be Kvitova's first final of the season, and her first in Miami in her career. Ad And though Rybakina is one of the form players on the WTA Tour — reaching the final of the Australian Open and winning in Indian Wells — Kvitova said afterwards that she can go into the match with a view to springing a surprise.
