Athletistic / Tennis. Legendary Russian tennis player Andrei Olkhovsky believes that Russian representatives have little chance of competing for medals at the 2024 Olympic tennis tournament in Paris (France). The best result of Russian tennis players in singles was Diana Schneider’s entry into the second round.

“The result of Russian tennis players at the Paris Olympics does not surprise me. If someone had won a medal, it would have been a great success. However, there was little chance of this happening, because clay courts are not quite suitable for Russian women, and there are practically no prerequisites for winning medals, there were none,” Olkhovsky was quoted as saying by TASS.
