Daria Kasatkina admitted yesterday that reaching her first Slam quarter-final was such a shock that she almost left herself homeless in Paris. The Russian stunned World No. 2 and Australian Open champion Caroline Wozniacki 7-6 (7/5), 6-3.
However, despite being assured of $380,000 euros (Rs 3 crore approx) by reaching the last-eight at the French Open, the World No. 14 had only booked accommodation until Tuesday. "My house which I rent expired today, and I have to change to the hotel," she revealed after reeling off three straight games in just 17 minutes to finish her tie against Wozniacki which was suspended at 3-3 in the second set overnight because of darkness.
