Heartache for Kostyuk in Dubai
Marta Kostyuk went toe to toe with Belinda Bencic for the second time in as many weeks at the Dubai Duty-Free Tennis Championships but lost agonizingly in three sets.
The match lasted three hours and 27 minutes – 2 minutes shy of being the longest WTA match of 2023. The Ukranian will take some time to digest that defeat having led Bencic by a set and a break.
One bad game is all it took for Kostyuk to relinquish her unassailable lead, giving the Swiss the break back and Bencic seized control.
While this was a better showing than her last defeat in Abu Dhabi to the same opponent, it is a familiar pattern for Kostuk who has been on the wrong end of some close defeats in the early part of 2023.

Galfi Retired in Linz
Dalma Galfi played in her last WTA tournament over two weeks ago at the Linz Open, where she reached her second WTA quarterfinal, but ended up retiring midway through the first set against Marketa Vondrousova.
Having broken the world’s top 100, Galfi is seeing plenty of action on the WTA Tour. Last year she reached the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time in the same city she won the girls’ singles title back in 2015.
While Galfi found it difficult to deal with added pressure since her breakthrough run in the junior’s circuit, she is slowly but steadily working her way up the rankings on the main tour.
After a dismal start to 2023, with four straight defeats, Galfi got her season on the right track in Linz, qualifying for the event and scoring two massive wins to make the last eight. But having been reportedly injured, it will be interesting to see if she is fully recovered as she takes to the court against Kostyuk.
Kostyuk v Galfi Prediction and Tip
Galfi is a solid baseliner and often loves to mix it up with her backhand slice while playing defense. But I think she will be undercooked for this encounter against Kostyuk who is playing at a fast and consistent pace right now.
Tips:
- Low Risk Tip: Kostyuk to win: 2/5 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
- Moderate Risk Tip: Kostyuk to win in straight sets: 20/21 (Click Here to Bet with 888Sport)
