Daria KASATKINA: I was booed for showing respect to Svitolina
Russian tennis player Daria Kasatkina After losing to Elina Svitolina (4:6, 6:7) in the 1/8 finals of the French Open tennis championship 2023, he posted on Twitter:
“I am leaving Paris with a very bitter feeling. All these days, after every game I played in Paris, I always appreciated and thanked the audience for their support and standing by the players. But yesterday I was booed for respecting my opponent’s position and not shaking his hand.
Elina and I respected each other after a tough game, but leaving the field like this was the worst part of yesterday. Be better, love each other. Don’t spread hate. Try to make this world a better place. Regardless, I will always and forever love Roland Garros. See you next year, ”Kasatkina wrote.
After the match was over, Daria shook hands with the referee, gave Elina a thumbs up and left. Elina was just beginning to approach the net at that moment.
Note that Daria publicly condemned the war and left Russia in 2022.
Me and Elina respected each other after a tough game, but leaving the field like this was the worst part of yesterday. Be better, love each other. Don’t spread hate. Try to make this world better💜 No matter what happens, I will always and forever love RG. see you next year🇫🇷

The world’s first racket Arina Sabalenko He responded to Ukraine’s accusations at the press conference Alexandra Oleynikova In support of Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukoshenko:
– Ukrainian tennis player Alexandra Oleynikova mentioned you and several Russian players, saying that you support their governments, and called for a ban on the participation of Russian and top Russian players. I just wanted to give you a chance to answer this.
– Actually, I’ve talked about this a lot before. Of course I want peace and if I could change something I would definitely do it. Other than that, I don’t have anything else to say.
– As a follow-up to the previous question, I respect your wish not to comment on politics, but do you consider Oleynikova’s comments yesterday, in which she personally mentioned you, as unfair? Do you want politics to stay out of tennis?
– Look, I’m here for tennis. This is a tennis event and I’ve said enough in the past and I don’t want to talk politics here.

“Andreeva walked through Sakkari very confidently, almost didn’t notice her at all” – Vesnina
Olympic champion Elena Vesnina assessed the form of Russian Mirra Andreeva at the Australian Open.
World number seven Mirra Andreeva beat Greek Maria Sakkari in the second round of the Australian Open with a score of 6:0, 6:4.
“Mirra walked through Sakkari very confidently and almost didn’t notice her at all. She had some of her best form last year when she won Indian Wells and Dubai.
Now we see Mirra, who has grown up and continues to study. But it’s too early to say that this is her best form. She needs to build her game, improve and set herself the goal of going as far as possible in the Grand Slam tournament, and maybe even winning it,” Vesnina was quoted as saying by Soviet Sport.
In the third round, the Russian will play with the 77th racket of the world, Elena Gabriela Ruze from Romania.
