On 21 July 2014, Lyudmyla reached her career-high singles ranking of world No. 156. On 13 January 2020, she peaked at No. 32 in the doubles rankings. To date, she has won four doubles titles on the WTA Tour, all with her twin sister Nadiia Kichenok.

Career

In 2015, she won her first WTA doubles title together with her sister. They escaped a 5–0 deficit in the second set tie-break of their 6–4, 7–6 defeat of Liang Chen and Wang Yafan in the Shenzhen Open final. That made the Kichenoks the second pair of twins, after Karolína Plíšková and Kristýna Plíšková, to win a WTA doubles title. They previously had been runners-up at Tashkent in 2011 and Shenzhen in 2014.[1] She won the second WTA doubles title at Brasil Tennis Cup.

During the 2015 Tianjin Open, Lyudmyla caused the biggest upset of the tournament, upsetting world No. 8 and reigning US Open champion Flavia Pennetta in the first round for the biggest win of her career so far.[2]

gollark: Who knows.
gollark: https://wiki.vexatos.com/dfpwmIt's weird and I don't think anything else uses it.
gollark: DFPWM, I'll link it.
gollark: Natively, Computronics tapes are basically just big binary storage things you can playback DFPWM from, so my thing consists of an encoder which converts whatever input to WAV to DFPWM using external tools, as well as reading their metadata and adding a metadata block to the start of the tape to be read.
gollark: That's Minecraft Bedrock Edition, except it's monetized horribly and doesn't have mod support.
