Elina Svitolina supports young Ukrainian talent in 'difficult time for Ukraine'

Elina Svitolina showed that she wants to help people in need when she supported young Ukrainian tennis player Sofia Kryvoruchko.

Like many other successful athletes, Svitolina has a foundation that supports various causes. She's one of the most successful tennis players to come out of her country, and her results certainly back that up.

In 2017, the Ukrainian reached the world no. 3 rank on the WTA Tour, and during her successful tennis career, she accumulated millions in prize money, being one of the Top 30 best-earning players in the history of the WTA Tour, and on top of that, she earned a lot also from sponsorship deals.

But instead of enjoying all of the money herself, Svitolina wants to share with others, and that's also one of the reasons why she created her own foundation - Elina Svitolina Foundation.

She helps many of her compatriots through her foundation, and this time, the Ukrainian delivered a package to young tennis player Sofia Kryvoruchko, who aspires to become a WTA player one day. The package included two pairs of shoes, some T-shirts, socks, and trousers, all with the logo of the Elina Svitolina Foundation.
