Andrea Petkovic has claimed a scalp in the form of World Number 5, Elina Svitolina to finish third in the hard court tournament in Bett1 Aces on home soil.
Svitolina has had a hit and miss return to action losing two out of three games in Switzerland before returning to win the first Bett1 Aces on grass which ended on the hard court against Petra Kvitova.
During that, she defeated Anastasija Sevastova but lost out yesterday and now she will face Kvitova in the final shortly. This meant a third place contest with Petkovic.
The Ukrainian lost the first five games and then pulled it back but narrowly lost the first set but took the next set to a tie break which the German breezed through 7-1 to claim it 6-4, 7-6 (7-1).

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
