“I will not pull it spiritually.” Tsurenko ready to withdraw from Russian matches
Ukrainian tennis player Lesya Tsurenko is ready to withdraw from the matches if the opponents are representatives of the offensive countries Russia and Belarus.
“I will definitely [сниматься с матчей]. To be honest, there are some players that I can’t even mentally pull myself to play because I know their positions, it’s unpleasant for me. I’ll stick to this advice, it was one of my ideas at the beginning, but I realized that in tennis it wouldn’t make sense – that’s for sure. But if there is such a recommendation – 100% [сниматься]”.
“To be honest, I feel very nervous at tournaments, it is unpleasant for me to be in the presence of representatives of aggressive countries.”
“Of course, it takes a lot of effort and you have to work hard on yourself to keep playing and keep showing results. It’s often a mystery to me that Russians and Belarusians will compete at the Olympics,” said Tsurenko.
