In Auckland, Alexandra Eala experienced a special moment by defeating, alongside Iva Jovic, Venus Williams and Elina Svitolina in a highly publicized match.
In Auckland, a partnership as surprising as it is exciting: Venus Williams and Elina Svitolina will share the same side of the net for the first time. Between mutual respect and sharp humor, the two champions promise an unprecedented spectacle.
Kristina Mladenovic gave it her all, but it wasn't enough. Defeated in two tight sets by Austrian Sinja Kraus, the Frenchwoman exits the Auckland qualifiers, leaving Varvara Gracheva as the sole French representative in the main draw.
She never stops. Venus Williams, 45, returns to the circuit with a wild card and a top-choice partner for doubles in Auckland, in the person of Elina Svitolina.
