JAKARTA – Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina has really felt the impact of the Russian invasion of her country. She lost concentration while participating in various competitions.
It can be seen from the 27-year-old's latest appearance in the Indian Wells and Miami Open tournaments. He immediately failed in the early round after losing to Harriet Dart and Heather Watson.
"I spoke a few days ago with my grandmother, who lives by the sea, and she told me they started bombing boats, directly in the city. Everyone was very scared, in the last few days I was very worried about their safety", said Svitolina, quoted by tennisworldusa.com.

Elina said she had tried to deal with this situation and hoped to play better. However, his efforts were fruitless.
Other Ukrainian tennis players, said Elina, also face the same problem.
"Everything that is happening in Ukraine is very sad, every hour we read new news. It is very painful to see your country being attacked. I am very proud to be Ukrainian and the struggle we are fighting for peace and our future", said Gael Monfils' lover.
Elina Svitolina is a tennis player who has been vocal enough to voice peace since the beginning of Russia's invasion of her country. On many occasions, he continued to mention the conflict that occurred there.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine forced millions of people to flee. This conflict has also claimed hundreds of victims, including innocent civilians and small children.
