ROLAN GAROS: Jelena Ostapenko podigla prvi grend slem pehar
Vau, kakvo mjesto da osvojiš svoju prvu titulu u singlu, bile su riječi legendarne Bili Džin King upućene danas Jeleni Ostapenko.
Ostapenko je prije dva dana na Rolan Garosu proslavila 20. rođendan, a danas ispisala istoriju pobijedivši u finalu Simonu Halep 4:6, 6:4, 6:3 i podigavši trofej o kojem sanjaju svi teniseri i teniserke. Nazvala ga je Suzi, jer ipak titulu je osvojila na terenu pod imenom Suzan Lenglan, a i na peharu piše Suzan Lenglan.

Ostapenko je ostvarenjem sna u ovom izuzetnom meču ispisala i istoriju. Prva je Letonka koja je osvojila grend slem titulu u singlu, a prva je igračica još od 1933. godine koja je osvojila Rolan Garos a nije bila nositeljka. Ostapenko je bila 47, a od ponedjeljka biće 12. teniserka svijeta.
Evo i još jednog nevjerovatnog podatka:
The last player to win their debut title at Roland-Garros was Gustavo Kuerten on June 8, 1997…
