Barbora Krejcikova will play the final in Strasbourg! She will also get a lifetime best

Barbora Krejčíková cannot complain about the course of 2021 so far. The former world number one in doubles has made a huge progress, as evidenced by the final of the tournament in Strasbourg.

Barbora Krejčíková reached the final of the tournament in Dubai in 2021, where she lost to the Spanish tennis player Muguruza. However, the scalp of Sofia Kenin at the Rome tournament is also worth mentioning.

Now the 25-year-old native of Brno has reached her second final of the current season. The Czech Republic’s representative had to deal with Dodinova, Garcia, Alexandrova and Niemeira.

In the final of the Strasbourg event, she can look forward to a match with the Romanian Sorana-Mihaela Cirstea. It will be the third meeting between the two, with Krejcikova winning the only match on clay, where the tournament is also played in the French capital.

If the 25-year-old tennis player from Moravia could dominate the final match, she would move up to 33rd in the WTA rankings. However, it is already clear that she will set a new high in Monday’s ranking.

If we only look at the 2021 rankings, it’s even a little more cheerful. With 1,168 points, Krejcikova is ranked 13th, which puts her very close to the Champions Tournament.

Krejcikova will be at the French Open in the coming week. Kristyna Pliskova, who has lost her last five matches, will be waiting for her in the first round.
