Marta Olehivna Kostyuk (Ukrainian: Марта Олегівна Костюк; born 28 June 2002) is a Ukrainian tennis player. She has career-high rankings of 49 in singles, achieved on 14 February 2022, and world No. 45 in doubles, reached on 6 June 2022.
Marta is the daughter of Oleh Kostyuk and his wife, Talina Beiko. Her father was the technical director of the Antey Cup, a junior tennis tournament in Kyiv; her mother was a professional tennis player who reached a career-high WTA ranking of No. 391, and won a $10k title in her home city of Kyiv in 1994, and represented a Ukrainian tennis team. Her uncle Taras Beyko is also a retired tennis player. Marta is a sister of collegiate tennis player Mariya Kostyuk, who competed for Chicago State University and Southeast Missouri State University. Marta is a cousin of professional football players Vadym Slavov and Myroslav Slavov.[2]
Kostyuk started playing tennis at a young age at the Antey Tennis Club, on the west side of Kyiv, coached by her mother. She described her initial experience in tennis at age five: "My mom was always working a lot as a coach, and the first time I went to the courts to train, I just understood that if I started doing tennis, I'd get to spend more time with my mom. So that was kind of my motivation – if I played tennis, I'd be around her more often". She was also coached by her maternal uncle Taras Beiko, who had played for the USSR and Ukraine in the late 1980s and early 1990s.[3][4][5]

By defeating Peng Shuai in the first round, Kostyuk became the youngest player to win a main-draw match in Melbourne since Martina Hingis in 1996.[12] In the second round, she defeated Australian wildcard Olivia Rogowska in straight sets. In doing this, she became the youngest player to reach the third round of a Grand Slam event since Mirjana Lučić-Baroni reached the same stage at the 1997 US Open.[13] However, she fell in round three to fourth seed and compatriot player Elina Svitolina.

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.
