Polina Kudermetova told how close she is with her sister Veronica

Russian tennis player Polina Kudermetova spoke about her close relationship with her older sister Veronica.

What advice do I turn to Veronica for? Honestly, for now [много] didn’t ask. There are questions, for example, how to apply for the WTA tournament. There is a slightly different registration, not the same as in the ITF. I didn’t ask for more personal advice. Do I share my feelings? Yes, we have a close relationship, I trust secrets! When they were small, they quarreled, when they became older – never. We are very friendly and try to support each other. Figuratively, any athlete has failures, experiences. I always try to support, write to please her, or call. Before that, we rarely spent time together – we didn’t get to those tournaments that she plays. But now, I hope, we will see each other more if I get to the same tournaments, ”Kudermetova said to the Championship.
