A Ukrainian player refusing to shake the hand of a Russian or Belarusian at the net has become a common sight on the tennis tours over the past two years.

The defending champion put down the perfect scoreline against Lesia Tsurenko after coming within one game of a perfect match in the first round.

But the American said she would trade all of the Pegula family’s $6.7-billion net worth to be known as a champion at Wimbledon.

The top-ranked American brushed aside Lesia Tsurenko, 6-1, 6-3, to complete the Grand Slam set at Wimbledon on Sunday.

The Ukrainian prevailed, 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (20-18), after three hours and 40 minutes of play on Court 14 Friday at Wimbledon.
