Vice President of the Russian Tennis Federation (RFT) Alexey Selivanenko told that the appearance of the coach Dmitri Tursunov Russians on the team Veronica Kudermetova had a positive impact on its results.
On Sunday, Kudermetova beat American Jessica Pegula in the final match of the WTA tournament in Tokyo. The match lasted just under an hour and a half and ended in favor of Kudermetova in straight sets (7:5, 6:1).
— Any outcome is a combination of many factors. But, undoubtedly, Dmitry Tursunov is an experienced specialist who, after finishing his playing career, in a very short time became one of the most respected coaches on the circuit. And the fact that he became one of Veronica’s team members has had a positive impact on his recent performances. I think this victory, like any other, will give confidence to Kudermetova,” Selivanenko told .
For 26-year-old Kudermetova, the title at tournaments under the auspices of the WTA became the second in her career – the athlete had already won the tournament in Charleston in April 2021.
