In one of the matches of the confrontation, a doubles match was played: Paula Bados and Iga Svyontek took the court against Jasmine Paolini and Simone Halep. The victory was won by the Italian-Romanian tandem with a score of 7:5.
After the match, the tennis players traditionally exchanged handshakes. Iga and Simona also did this, although the handshake turned out to be rather awkward.
However, it was uncomfortable not because of Halep’s criticism of Swiontek after the polka doping scandal, but because Badosa and Paolini delayed their mutual thanks for the game a little. Although tennis fans feared that the Romanian would refuse to shake hands with Iga.
VIDEO. It was uncomfortable. Did Halep shake Swiontek’s hand after the match in the UAE?
The effort they had to make to shake hands! 😂 pic.twitter.com/hEEXeWXujL
