Wuhan Open 2024: Sackari Recalls 2017 Success After Kostyuk Win

At the 2024 Wuhan Open, Maria Sackari demonstrated a blend of resilience and seasoned skill, overcoming Marta Kostyuk 4-6, 6-2, 6-2. The Greek star said the match reminded her of her 2017 breakthrough, when she climbed into the WTA top‑50 by defeating players such as Karolina Wojtek, Elena Vesnina and Eliza Cornet. She noted that she now approaches high‑pressure points with more calculation, having learned from past successes. The win placed her in the third round and reignited hopes of reaching the quarter‑finals, a stage she has not achieved this season.
