The success of the Canadian tennis player Marina Stakusic who faced her this Thursday with the Polish Magdalena Frech in the finals of the Billie Jean King Cup that will be held until Sunday at the La Cartuja stadium in Seville, left Spain without any option to fight for the title. The 18-year-old won the second set to make it official that Spain will miss the semifinals. And later, the Canadian turned things around, continuing his excellent form in this competition, achieving victory 4-6, 7-5 and 6-3.
Stakusic, who the previous day defeated Spaniard Rebeka Masarova (6-3 and 6-1), lost the first set 4-6 but reacted in the second, despite starting with a break down, to scored it 7 -5 on his third set point and on Frech’s serve, after the two went to waste in the tenth game.
On Wednesday, Spain lost to Canada 3-0 in a tie in which the hosts did not score a setsomething so that if the Canadian adds another set in this match, Spain will be left without the option of surpassing the North Americans on average in the most favorable cases, a triple tie at the end of the first period .
Therefore, the team captained by Anabel Medina will end their journey in group C and the competition this Friday, when they face Poland in the afternoon session.
