French Open: Kalinskaya Survives Epic Potapova Battle To Reach Maiden QF

By IANS News June 01, 2026 • 18:58 PM View: 137

French Open: Anna Kalinskaya won one of the most dramatic matches of the Roland Garros fortnight, defeating Anastasia Potapova in a thrilling three-set match to reach the French Open quarter-finals for the first time in her career.

The 22nd-seeded Russian fought for two hours and 49 minutes on Court Suzanne-Lenglen before winning 6-4, 2-6, 7-6(7) against the 28th-seeded Austrian. The match saw frequent shifts in momentum and could have gone to either player at several points.

Kalinskaya's progress to the quarter-finals is only her second at a Grand Slam, following her breakthrough at the 2024 Australian Open. Notably, she reached Paris after winning only one main-draw match at Roland Garros before this year's tournament.
