The Argentine tennis player Nadia Podoroska advanced this Saturday to the final of the W60 tournament in San Bartolomé de Tirajana, in Spain, after beating the Russian Polina Kudermetova 7-6 (9-7) and 6-4.
Born in Rosario and relegated to 184th place in the WTA world ranking after almost a year without competing due to a series of injuries, Podoroska confirmed her very good week and defeated Kudermetova (287) after an intense match that lasted one hour and 52 minutes.
The 25-year-old from Rosario will go in search of the title this Sunday against the Austrian Julia Grabher (131), who won the other semifinal against the Dutch Suzan Lamens (198) 6-3, 6-4.
“We’re in the final!” Podoroska wrote on Twitter.. It was a way of venting: she was away from the WTA circuit for 10 months due to injuries to the hip area and returned in June of this year, qualifying to enter Wimbledon.
Before, he participated in tournaments in Palermo (Italy), Poland and Romania, although just this week in Spain he showed his best version.
