Former second racket in the world among juniors Anastasia Pivovarova, in an interview with Gazeta.Ru, answered the question whether she considers the current era of Russian men’s tennis to be the best in history.
Earlier, three Russian tennis players reached the quarterfinals of the Wimbledon tournament at once – Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev and Roman Safiullin.
– It’s hard to compare. I liked the days of Marat Safin and Yevgeny Kafelnikov, when Marat won the Grand Slam at the age of 20. All eras are good when you have guys who can play at the highest level. And when there are many, it is very pleasant. Thank you very much for such tennis and for the fact that they fight every game,” said Pivovarova.
In the quarter-finals of Wimbledon, Medvedev will face American Christopher Eubanks. The match will take place on July 12 with the second start on court number 1 – after the match between Arina Sobolenko and Madison Keys. Rublev previously lost his quarter-final to Novak Djokovic (6:4, 1:6, 4:6, 3:6), while Safiullin lost to Yannick Sinner (4:6, 6:3, 2:6, 2:6).
