Kazakh tennis player Elena Rybakina achieved success due to the fact that he changed sports citizenship, his father wanted to deny further support to the athlete, said on the show “There is a theme!” on “” host Alexei Mikhailov.
A native of Moscow, Rybakina beat Tunisian Ons Jaber in the Wimbledon 2022 final. The tennis player until 2018 played for Russia.
– For many years, the father of Andrei Rybakina, whom we colloquially called Fishman, worked with us as a producer. Everyone who knew him can say that every day he thought several hundred times to stop all this, and he did not have the strength to drag Lena further – neither physically nor materially.
Nobody knew if she would play or not. Kazakhstan was almost the only open door. Such a tennis player wouldn’t have existed if she hadn’t gone there, if she hadn’t been helped to build a team, if she hadn’t received lifting money. It’s not a crazy amount, but still. Tennis is a team sport. There are 3-4 people in the player’s box – a physical training coach, a tactical coach, a psychologist, a massage therapist. She herself would never have put together this team and would not have achieved this result, ”said Mikhailov.
Rybakina has three victories in Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) tournaments, six times more than the 23-year-old tennis player has made the final.
