Yanchuk – about Vesnina: “You cannot drink your skill, you cannot skip it and you will not lose it after the birth of a child”

Honored coach of Russia Viktor Yanchuk believes that the tennis player Elena Vesnin I didn’t lose my skills after the birth of my second child, so I decided to return to my career.

On Thursday, Vesnina, 37, announced the resumption of her playing career. In May 2023, the tennis player gave birth to her second daughter.

— Elena Vesnina’s decision to return did not surprise me. There are many examples of people returning after a break, and in women this is often associated with pregnancy. She is not the first and will not be the last to do this. Such an event is natural, we welcome it.

You can’t drink your skills, you can’t play hooky, and you won’t lose them after the birth of a child. Mastery is lasting, for the rest of your life. We have a great example – Vera Zvonareva, who is older than Lena, but even managed to win the final tournament in doubles. The feeling of the ball and the technique remain. You have to be a little careful about getting back into shape, but Lena is an Olympic champion, that says it all,” Yanchuk was quoted as saying by “Championship”.

Vesnina won gold at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics in doubles and also became a silver medalist at the Tokyo Olympics in mixed doubles.

The athlete gave birth to her first daughter in November 2018.
