Sabalenka of Belarus will meet Svitolina of Ukraine in the Roland Garros quarter-finals on Tuesday
ARYNA SABALENKA DEFEATED Sloane Stephens 7-6 , 6-4 on Sunday to reach the French Open quarter-finals for the first time and then opted out of her media commitments for a second time.
It will be the pair’s third meeting but first since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last year. Belarus is a key military ally of Moscow. She boycotted her last scheduled press conference on Friday after defeating Kamilla Rakhimova in the third round. Earlier on Sunday, Svitolina, playing her first Grand Slam since becoming a mother, reached the quarter-finals for the fourth time.
