Lyudmyla Viktorivna Kichenok (Ukrainian: Людмила Вікторівна Кіченок; born 20 July 1992 in Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine) is a professional Ukrainian tennis player. Her highest WTA singles ranking is 156, which she reached on 21 July 2014. Her career high in doubles is 52, which she reached on 27 July 2015. She is the twin sister of Nadiia Kichenok.

Career

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(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 were runners-up at Tashkent in 2011 and Shenzhen in 2014.[1] She won the second WTA doubles title Brasil Tennis Cup.

During the 2015 Tianjin Open, Kichenok caused the biggest upset of the tournament, upsetting world number 8 and reigning US Open champion Flavia Pennetta in the first round for the biggest win of her career so far.[2]
