A few days ago, the mother of the second Russian racket, Marina Maryenko, announced that her son would not participate in the Paris Olympics. She noted that Andrei did not tell her the reason, but suggested it might be related to his health.
“We contacted Andrei, everything is fine with him, his condition is excellent, no operation is necessary. The throat is fine too, the problem that occurred in Madrid is already resolved. In the near future, he himself will explain in more detail why he decided not to participate in the Olympic Games, but I will lift the veil of secrecy a little: the season is difficult, and after the Olympics there will be the Masters in Canada, where he also wants to compete. Andrey has already become Olympic champion with Nastya Pavlyuchenkova in mixed doubles in Tokyo, so he has already checked this box,” Tartakova said in a video on the telegram channel “Bolshe!”
