Anna Kalinskaya beat Anastasia Potapova in three sets at Roland-Garros to reach her first French Open quarterfinal and her second Grand Slam quarterfinal overall.
Anna Kalinskaya moved into her first Roland-Garros quarterfinal on Monday after edging Anastasia Potapova in a tense fourth-round match in Paris.
Kalinskaya won 6-4, 2-6, 7-6(7), closing out the match in a third-set tiebreak to secure one of the biggest results of her career at the French Open.
The victory also marked Kalinskaya's second Grand Slam quarterfinal overall, according to Reuters reporting, after a run that required her to recover after Potapova forced a deciding set.
The result continues Kalinskaya's progress at a major that has now produced her best career showing at Roland-Garros. Potapova, meanwhile, exits in the fourth round after pushing the match to the limit.
Kalinskaya's next match will be a quarterfinal in Paris as she looks to extend her run further.
