Details: Suspilne reported that this is only the second time in history that a Ukrainian tennis player has ever reached the mixed doubles finals.

At Wimbledon 2023, Kichenok reached the mixed doubles semifinals with Croatian Mate Pavic.

In the semifinals, they played against Johnny O'Mara and Olivia Nicholls from the UK.

Kichenok will play in the final on 13 July. The match will close the day's program on the tournament's centre court.

Kichenok is the second Ukrainian woman to play in a Grand Slam mixed doubles finals. In 2005, Tetiana Perebeinis reached the final with Australian Paul Henley, but the two of them lost the final match.
