Ukrainian tennis player Marta Kostyuk qualified for the third round of Wimbledon for the first time today, after her Spanish opponent Paula Badosa withdrew due to injury during their match. Kostyuk, 21 years old, was leading 6-2, 1-0 when Badosa pulled out due to a back issue. Badosa stated, "It's the same injury I have been suffering from in the past weeks; it’s a bone fracture. I did my best to play." She added, "I will need a few days off and talk with my team to see what I will do in the coming days and weeks."
