Or thrown into his battle, with our country’s top tennis player facing Chinese Yafan Wang (No. 80) in the first round of the tournament. Maria Sakkari’s trip to the US Open begins on Monday (26/08/24, 18:00), with the 29-year-old athlete premiered against Yafan Wang, in a match that No.9 of the ranking is the big favourite. This particular race will even open the program at Stadium 17, with the two athletes meeting four more times in the past. Previously 3 games, Sakkari counts 2 wins and 1 loss, having tradition in her favor. If the Greek woman succeeds in qualifying, then she will face one of the Zinyu Wang – Diane Parri. It is worth noting that the game will have no television coverage, as even though Eurosport has the rights to the tournament, the central company deciding which matches will be shown, did not choose the race of Sakkari, resulting in the effort of the leading Greek tennis player not having live television.
