Marta Kostyuk recently starred in a Vogue Ukraine magazine's photoshoot for the Ukrainian Olympics and Paralympics team. She will be representing her nation for the upcoming Olympics which will mark her debut at the prestigious event. The Paris Olympics will be held at the Roland Garros this year meaning it will be played on clay. It is slated to begin on July 27.

Kostyuk is currently competing at the grass swing where she has had a disappointing start. She was comfortably defeated 6-3, 6-3 in the first round of the Rothesay Open by compatriot Daria Snigur. Things got worse for the Ukrainian when she entered the ecotrans Ladies Open next but suffered another opening-round exit, losing to Daria Kasatkina after being a set up.

She will compete next at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships, after which she will head back to Paris.

Meanwhile, Marta Kostyuk starred in a recent Vogue Ukraine magazine photoshoot for Ukraine's Olympic and Paralympic teams, where she stunned in white. She joined her compatriots Liudmila Luzan, Zhan Beleniuk, Anna Gontar, Daria Bilodid, Olga Kharlan, Oleksii Sereda, and others who will represent Ukraine at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Kostyuk has had a rollercoaster of a European clay swing this year. The Ukrainian had a phenomenal start to the swing, reaching the final of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix by defeating the likes of Laura Siegemund, Zheng Qinwen, Coco Gauff, and Marketa Vondrousova. She was defeated by Elena Rybakina in the summit clash.

However, she was defeated in the opening rounds of both WTA 1000 tournaments in Madrid and Rome, losing in straight sets to Maya Sherif and Naomi Osaka, respectively. Her poor run continued at the French Open, where she was ousted in the second round by Donna Vekic.

However, there was a silver lining in her run as she reached the semifinals in doubles at Roland Garros alongside Elena-Gabriela Ruse.
