Both going the distance in three sets. Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva, the nineteen-year-old from Andorra who knocked out Petra Mar\u010dinko in the quarterfinals, has reached the final. In a marathon battle against Serbia&#8217;s Lola Radivojevi\u0107, she came through after nearly three and a half hours, winning 6:7 (2), 7:5, 6:4.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the second semifinal, it looked as though top seed Australian Maya Joint would cruise to a comfortable victory. However, Czech Sara Bejlek managed to fight her way back into the match and ultimately prevailed 2:6, 7:5, 6:2. She had the wind in her sails thanks to a group of Czech tourists cheering her on from the stands.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Czechs also celebrated in the doubles final. Miriam Kolodziejova and Jesika Male\u010dkova defeated Georgia&#8217;s Oksana Kalashnikova and Russia&#8217;s Elena Pridankina 2:6, 6:3 (10:4). Again it looks like the English translation came back my way \u2014 send over the next Croatian paragraph whenever you&#8217;re ready!<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether the fourth Makarska Open hosted by Valamar will be claimed by Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva or Sara Bejlek, we will find out tomorrow. The final gets underway at 8 PM, but before the match, tennis fans can look forward to a spectacular show. Before the final, \u0160ime Elez and Milo\u0161 Mi\u0107evi\u0107 from RTL&#8217;s show Gospodin Savr\u0161eni (The Bachelor) will battle it out in an exhibition match, Marino Vrgo\u010d will take to the stage, and the evening will close with &#8220;U ritmu emocija&#8221; \u2014 a concert by Frajle.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"98\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-98\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"101\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/04-4.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"103\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-5.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"104\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-6.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"105\" src=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/makarskaopen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/04-7.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brilliant semifinal matches at the WTA Makarska Open hosted by Valamar.
