She shared, “And that Harry Styles concert? “He told me that next time he will be going on tour, I have two tickets. So, all good.” When Styles told her previously about how she could join the concert later, he in fact also promised her 2 tickets which she could not use in the first place due to her tournament.

Seems like Styles is a man of his word and of course, Svitolina gets to attend the concert of her favorite artist as well. Besides sharing her amazement towards Styles, Svitolina also talked about serious issues related to her war-torn home country. She shared how her stance remains unchanged for the coming year as well.
