Midfielder “PARI NN” Nikolai Kalinsky who is the brother of tennis player Anna Kalinskaya, revealed the secret of his sister’s successful performances at the start of the season.
In January, Kalinskaya reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open Grand Slam tournament, which was her best result in her career. Last week, the 25-year-old tennis player played in the final of the WTA 1000 tournament in Dubai (UAE), where she was beaten by Italian Jasmine Paolini. The Russian went from 40th to 24th place in the world rankings.
—Did you expect this year to be a breakthrough season for Anna?
— Anya is a professional, she prepared well for the season. Before that, perhaps injuries prevented him from showing such results. God grant that Anya is healthy this year and continues to play the wonderful tennis she is currently showing.
— Do you think she can reach the top 10 of the WTA this year?
— Personally, I believe and I am proud of Anya. The rest depends on her,” Sport24 quotes Nikolai Kalinsky.
