Biography

Glushko's USSR-born parents Sergio and Olga, sister Julia, and brother Alex immigrated to Israel from Ukraine in 1999, one year before she was born in Israel.[2] She graduated from Ironi Gimel High School in Modiin, Israel.[2]

She served in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).[2]

She is the younger sister of Julia Glushko (10 years older), who was also a professional tennis player (ranked as high as # 79 in the world), and with whom she has teamed as a doubles partner.[2] She was coached first by her father, and then by her brother.[2]

In September 2017, she won the inaugural Anna and Michael Kahan Family Prize in Ramat Hasharon, claiming NIS 100,000 in support; Glushko was able to use the money to purchase equipment and to travel abroad for tournaments and training camps.[3] In 2018, she won the $15,000 Akko Hard Court Tournament.[4] In 2021, she won the W25 Kiryat Motzkin Hard Court Tournament.[4] In July 2022, at the W25 Corroios-Seixal Hard Court Tournament, while ranked # 268 she upset # 116 Vitalia Diatchenko.[5]

In doubles in 2021 she and Alicia Barnett won the W15 Sharm El Sheikh Hard Court Tournament, and she and Shavit Kimchi won the W25 Netanya Hard Court Tournament.[6] In 2023 she and Emina Bektas won the W25 Pretoria Hard Court Tournament and the W60 Fukuoka Carpet Tournament.[6]

She also represents Israel in the Fed Cup, where she has a win–loss record of 6–4.

Career

She made her WTA Tour debut at the 2022 Internationaux de Strasbourg.[7]

Notes
  1. The first Premier 5 event of the year has switched back and forth between the Dubai Tennis Championships and the Qatar Total Open since 2009. Dubai was classified as a Premier 5 event from 2009–2011 before being succeeded by Doha for the 2012–2014 period. In 2015, Dubai regained its Premier 5 status while Doha was demoted to Premier status. The Premier 5 tournaments were reclassified as WTA 1000 tournaments in 2021.
