Former Russian tennis player Anastasia Myskina in an interview with , she noted the good level of tennis played by former Russian national team football players Artem Dziuba and Dmitry Bulykin .
Myskina ended her career in 2007. She is the first tennis player from the former Soviet Union to win a Grand Slam tournament in women’s singles.
– At one time we spoke with Artem Dzyuba – we played tennis, – Myskina told . Besides, he plays very well.
Is Artem Dzyuba on the pitch like on the football pitch?
– Absolutely fire! You can’t even imagine. Once we played mixed doubles: Artem and I against Dima Bulykin and Lena Dementieva. It was a fabulous game! I think such games should be held on center courts.
Who won then?
– Good question … Unfortunately, they seem to be. By the way, Dima Bulykin also plays tennis very well. It seems to me that sometimes he is not invited to amateur tournaments, because he is too good for them.
– If you put Dzyuba and Bulykin against each other in singles, what happens?
– But it’s interesting, I would also like to watch it (laughs).
– In Zenit, Dzyuba was the main in humor. In the field too?
– Behind the courthouse. And on that, Artem is very serious and wants to win the same way, fights, fights, doesn’t like to lose. And off the pitch with him you can laugh and have fun until you drop.
