“I love seeing the new generation rise to the occasion. » I was very impressed by Cori Gauff’s victory in New York last year. Additionally, it is nice to see new names and opportunities emerging for athletes like Mirra Andreeva. Now we see that there is more stability in women’s tennis, and that’s really nice,” Sharapova said, as quoted by Forbes.
