Fifteen-year-old sensation Marta Kostyuk's fairytale continued Wednesday Jan 17,2018 as she beat local wildcard Olivia Rogowska to reach the third round of the Australian Open
The 6-3, 7-5 win took the Ukrainian teenager's win streak at Melbourne Park to an incredible 11 straight matches after winning the Australian Open girls' title in 2017 and coming through qualifying this year.
If those feats are not astonishing enough, Kostyuk has now become the youngest player to reach the third round since Martina Hingis got to the quarter-finals as a 15-year-old in 1996
In the first round she had dismantled Chinese number one and 25th seed Peng Shuai in straight sets in just 57 minutes.
