The competition at Eastbourne is by far Magda Lynet’s best grasscourt tournament. In the singles, she has already dealt with Danka Kovinić and Alison Riske.

The Polish woman did not have a day off, as she competed in doubles on Tuesday. Lynette in a duet with Alexandra Krunich defeated Anna Danielina and Beatriz Haddad Maya. On Wednesday, the Poznan player will fight for the semi-finals in the doubles match. However, the 30-year-old first appeared on the court to fight for promotion to the quarter-finals.

Her 1/8 opponent was Łesia Curenko, who she faced in… 2011. The Pole then won in two sets.

The meeting was kicked off brilliantly by the Ukrainian who won five games in a row, including twice Linnett’s break. However, Pole showed character and compensated for the loss, which led to a draw.

However, the scattered player from Poznan was stopped in the eleventh game of the first match, when Korenko broke it. With her serve, the Ukrainian rolled set-pieces and used the second balls, thanks to which she took the lead in the match.

In the second match, both players played better with their passes. Linette in the eighth match of the match got her first break point in this set, which she used in the next action. The Polish woman did not make a mistake in the service and won the duel.

The third group decided the match. In the fifth inning, the Poznan player got two break points, but he did not use either. She’s back on subsequent Curenko websites, this time without any major issues.

Lynette served for victory in the match, but then the opponent shifted a higher speed and led to a tie. The Ukrainian followed the blow and with the next Polish pass, she worked on two identical balls. She used the second of them and eventually secured her promotion to the quarter-finals.

In the next round, Corenko will face Beatrice Haddad, Maya who defeated Jodi Bragg.
