Tennis Star Marta Kostyuk Causes Stir With 'Summer' Swimsuit Photos

Women's tennis star Marta Kostyuk is bringing the heat this June - on and off the court.

Kostyuk just had an incredible run at Roland Garros, reaching the semifinals for the first time in her career. The 23-year-old from Ukraine knocked off Elina Svitolina and Iga Swiatek during her incredible run. Overall, she finished the 2026 clay-court season with a 16-1 record and captured her first WTA 1000 title at the Madrid Open.

"A few years ago, reaching my first Grand Slam semi-final and not making the final would have felt very different. Of course, I'm disappointed. I wanted more. But I'm also leaving Paris with a feeling I haven't always had: appreciation for what this journey is becoming," Kostyuk said after losing to Mirra Andreeva at Roland Garros. "For a long time, I measured everything through results. Lately, I've been learning to appreciate the growth behind them, the people who share this path with me, and the opportunity to compete at the highest level. This tournament reminded me how different my relationship with the game feels today. My first Grand Slam semi-final. Thank you to my team, to everyone who supported me throughout these two weeks, and to everyone back home in Ukraine."

With the clay-court season in the rearview mirror, Kostyuk appears to e working on her tan. She posted several swimsuit photos from Greece on Instagram this Friday.

To the surprise of absolutely no one, Kostyuk received a lot of love from her fans.

"Oh my Marta," one fan commented.

"Stunning Marta," a second fan wrote.

"The most stunning player on the tour," an Instagram user declared.

What's ahead for Marta Kostyuk?

Kostyuk was supposed to compete in the Queen's Club Championships this week. Unfortunately, an ankle injury forced her to withdraw from this tournament.

The good news, however, is that Kostyuk should be ready for Wimbledon. Although she has never made it past the third round at the All England Club, she's played with so much confidence this year that we can't rule out a deep run.

For now though, Kostyuk is enjoying a well-deserved vacation in Europe.
