Dayana Yastremska fled war-torn Ukraine with her sister to France. Yastremska’s parents asked the sisters to leave the country but they decided to stay back.

Yastremska and her sister took a boat to Romania after their father dropped them off at a harbor. On their way to the harbor, she noticed the damage and devastation that the war had done to Ukraine.

In a touching social media post, Yastremska said:

I haven’t left home to do my favorite job. There’s a war in Ukraine! I love you all and I genuinely believe that peace will be restored soon! Stay safe!

Yastremska will compete at the Lyon Open starting Monday. Elina Svitolina, who is also from Ukraine, pleaded for the war to stop.

Christian Garin is struggling badly. There is no other way to say. He has not won a match in 3 tournaments. In 2022, he has racked up a win loss record of 4-4.

He has been struggling with a shoulder injury for about a year now. Garin has been frustrated with his results and constantly playing with an injury. He said:

It’s been awful to play tennis like this, I’ve been given all I’ve got and I can’t overcome this. Tomorrow I’ll take a decision concerning my future and I’ll see what I’ll do. It’s not worth it to keep playing like this.

Gain is only 25 and needs to take care of his health. A break from tennis to get his physical and mental health in shape may not be bad idea.

Garin has won 5 ATP titles – all of them on clay. His best grand slam result was reaching the fourth round at the French Open and Wimbledon. He is currently ranked 27 in the world but his rankings are likely to drop because of his poor results in recent months.
