Australian Open: Noskova Joins Yastremska After Svitolina's Heartbreak Exit, Alcaraz Continues To Soar
Yastremska's fairy-tale journey continued with a straight-set 7-6(6), 6-4 victory over former Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka, marking her seventh consecutive win from qualifying to the quarterfinals. The world No.93 expressed a mix of nerves and determination, securing a spot in the last eight and setting up a clash with Czech teenager Linda Noskova, who advanced due to Svitolina's heartbreaking retirement.
Svitolina, who had been in exceptional form, suffered a sudden back injury during her match with Noskova, forcing her to retire after just three games. After a medical timeout at 0-2, Svitolina was still in severe discomfort as she tried to play one more service game and abandoned the match in tears after just 23 minutes. The Ukrainian had dropped only 13 games on her way to the fourth round but was visibly distressed as she abandoned the match in tears.
