Daria Snigur Aims to Savor the Moment After Securing Maiden WTA Final Berth in Prague
Ukraine's Daria Snigur has reached the final of a WTA event for the first time, overcoming home favourite Tereza Valentova and the crowd at the Stvanice Centre Court in Prague. This achievement guarantees her a spot in the world's top 50, and a win in the final could propel her into the top 40.
Snigur expressed surprise at her success, stating that she did not expect to advance this far in the tournament. She attributed her victory to her ability to play "step by step, point by point" against Valentova, a formidable opponent known for her fighting spirit.
The Ukrainian player received support from the crowd, with several yellow and blue flags visible in the stands, which she appreciated given the current situation in her country. Snigur has become the sixth Ukrainian to reach a WTA final in 2026, but she does not believe that there is a direct connection between their successes, as they rarely see each other.
Snigur has found a training base in Poland, where she works with coach Dawid Celt, and will face Lilli Tagger in the final on Sunday. She acknowledges that this will be the most important match of her career so far and is determined to enjoy the moment.
