Tennis: Czech Kvitová faces Ukrainian Svitolina on Friday in postponed Berlin final

The final of the Berlin exhibition tennis tournament between Czech star Petra Kvitová and Ukrainian Elina Svitolina will take place on Friday after Wednesday’s match was called off due to rain.

Kvitová, a two-time Wimbledon, won the Czech Tennis Association’s President’s Cup exhibition tournament in May, the first such contest since the regular tennis season was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.

In Berlin on Tuesday, Kvitová beat Kiki Bertens of the Netherlands in two sets (6:3 and 6:2).
