Elina Svitolina beats 2022 semi-finalist Martina Trevisan 6-2, 6-2 at French Open
So much has changed for Elina Svitolina, who played – and won – her first Grand Slam match in nearly 1½ years on Monday at the French Open, eliminating 2022 semi-finalist Martina Trevisan 6-2, 6-2.
She hadn’t played at a Slam since a third-round exit at the Australian Open in January, 2022. She hadn’t played a match anywhere since March, 2022, when she was still ranked 20th. The work to return to the tour after giving birth began this January; her initial WTA match came at Charleston, S.C., in April. On Saturday, she won her first title since returning to action, at a smaller event on red clay in Strasbourg, France.
Trevisan cried as she spoke after the match about a problem with her right foot that made it difficult to even walk and prompted her to stop playing during her quarter-final last week at the Morocco Open, where she was the defending champion.“Even though she’s just coming back from having a daughter, she’s a champion,” Trevisan said. “And she’s coming off a title, so she’s confident.”
