WTA decided to conduct a small survey among famous tennis players to find out their gastronomic preferences when traveling to tournaments.

While running to the semi-finals in Beijing in October Coco Goff He became addicted to the local cuisine and found success. From fried rice and noodles to hot soups flavored with chili oil and vinegar, Goff felt right at home.

“It’s like a warm hug. It seems to me that people in China generally live very long, and I told my team that I should eat this every day. If you eat this every day, you will live a very long time.”

When you eat something and you feel like it automatically heals you, that’s how I feel. I eat this every day. I think that’s why I’m playing so well.”

Here’s what other tennis players have to say:

Magda Linette: “Rome is incredible. There is a restaurant there where all the players go, Taverna Trilussa. My Croatian coach took me there for the first time. I always heard about it but I never went. It was amazing, it was amazing, you can’t stop going. I also love Madrid’s food, even the street food. It’s delicious.”

Wang Xinyu: “I love Tokyo. The food is the most delicious there. I can’t choose a restaurant because there are too many restaurants. But street food is the best.”

Ounce Jabeur: “I love eating Korean BBQ. I’ve tried the best ones in Australia and the USA.

I also went to a restaurant in New York with my sponsor Lotto and it was a steakhouse. There are knives with your name on them. So if you go there, next to Will Smith’s knife, my knife will have my name on it. “When I get there, I can eat with my knife.”
