Ostapenko/Kichenok reach doubles semis at Dubai Tennis Championships for 2nd year.
Jelena Ostapenko and Lyudmyla Kichenok fought back from a set down to secure their place in the Doubles semi-finals at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. Ostapenko, who reached both the Singles and Doubles finals in Dubai last year, wished she could channel the relaxed mindset she applies to Doubles into her Singles game after losing to Aryna Sabalenka earlier this week. In Friday’s semi-final, Ostapenko and Kichenok will face Veronika Kudermetova and Liudmila Samsonova.
