Julija Antonovna Putintseva ( Russian Юлия Антоновна Путинцева , English transcription: Yulia Antonovna Putintseva ; born January 7, 1995 in Moscow ) is a Russian tennis player who has competed for Kazakhstan since 2012 .
Career
Putinseva, who was taught to play tennis by her father Anton, moved to Paris as a youth player to train at Patrick Mouratoglu's academy . In 2009 she made her debut on the WTA tour in Luxembourg after receiving a wildcard for qualification from the organizers , but was eliminated there in the final round. The following year, she reached the semi-finals of the Wimbledon junior women's competition and the final at the US Open , in which she was defeated by Daria Gavrilova . In 2010 she also began playing tournaments on the ITF Women's World Tennis Tour and won her first professional title in 2011 in her native Moscow, which was followed by three more in the course of the year, including two in the $ 50,000 category. At the same time, she continued to compete in the Grand Slam tournaments for the juniors and reached the quarter-finals in Paris , London and New York . In 2012 Putinzewa scored her second Grand Slam final among the juniors at the Australian Open , but she also had to admit defeat in this one after losing to Taylor Townsend in three sets. She ended her junior career after reaching another quarter-finals at the US Open as third place in the junior tennis world rankings .
After winning her fifth title at an ITF tournament in the $ 25,000 category in Launceston , Putinseva achieved her greatest triumph to date with the triumph at the ITF tournament in the $ 100,000 category in Cagnes-sur-Mer as a qualifier. At the French Open , she then started for the first time in the qualification of a Grand Slam tournament for women and was eliminated in the second round. Then Putinseva changed nationality and, like some Russian tennis players, started under the Kazakh flag before her . At the end of the year she reached two finals on the ITF tour in Nantes and Dubai , but they both lost. Due to her improved world ranking position, she was qualified for the peloton for the first time for the Australian Open 2013 and immediately moved into the next round after defeating Christina McHale , where she was beaten by Carla Suárez Navarro . In the further course of the year she managed to jump into the top 100 of the tennis world rankings, but since she did not get beyond the second round in any tournament at WTA level, she fell back from the top 100 of the ranking at the end of the season.
In 2014 Putinseva therefore played more on the ITF tour, where she reached two finals, which she lost. On the WTA tour, she reached her first two quarter-finals in Båstad and Osaka . The following year she was in her first WTA semi-final, also in Båstad, in which she was defeated by Johanna Larsson , and reached the final of two ITF tournaments in the $ 100,000 category in Contrexéville and Suzhou , in which she won Alexandra Dulgheru and Hsieh Su- white was subject. Nevertheless, she was able to finish the year in the top 100 of the ranking for the first time. In 2016 Putinzewa started the new season with a third round participation at the Australian Open and a semi-final in Kaohsiung , in which she was eliminated against the eventual winner Venus Williams . Then she scored in Charleston for the first time the round of the last eight, before her international breakthrough at the French Open when she reached the quarter-finals after defeating Carla Suárez Navarro ; there she first had to admit defeat to Serena Williams in three sets. With major round victories in Tokyo , Wuhan and Beijing , she was able to end the season among the top 50 in the world for the first time.
At the beginning of 2017 Putinzewa reached her first WTA final in St. Petersburg after successes over top 10 players Svetlana Kuznetsova and Dominika Cibulková , which she lost to Kristina Mladenovic . Afterwards she achieved her highest world ranking position to date with place 27. In the rest of the year, however, she was unable to match the performance shown and fell out of the top 50 again at the end of the season despite reaching the third round at the French Open . In the following year, Putinseva presented himself inconsistently. Although she reached the quarter-finals again in Paris , in which she was stopped by Madison Keys , and advanced in Guanzhou in her second final on the WTA tour, in which she had to admit defeat to Wang Qiang , but were also faced with ten first-round defeats .
It was not until 2019 that Putinseva's performance gradually stabilized. After starting the year with a quarter-finals in Sydney , she reached the round of 16 in Miami and Madrid and won her first WTA title in Nuremberg after beating Tamara Zidanšek in the final . By making it to the quarter-finals in Birmingham , where she beat world number one Naomi Osaka in two sets in the second round , and the third round of the US Open , she was able to finish the year in the top 50 for the third time. In 2020 Putinzewa reached the third round in Melbourne and Doha .
In 2014, Putinseva made her debut for the Kazakh Fed Cup team in a 3-0 win against Indonesia . Since then, she has contested 27 matches in singles and doubles for the country, of which she was able to win 16 (individual balance 13: 7).
