Russian tennis player Mirra Andreeva said that the Olympic Games are no less valuable competitions than the Grand Slam tournaments.
Andreeva and Diana Schneider have reached the final of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in doubles. They will face Italy’s Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini in the gold medal match on Sunday.
– If you asked me earlier what I would choose between the Olympics and the Grand Slam, I would choose the Grand Slam. But if we talk to ordinary people who do not watch sports and tennis, for them “I won the Grand Slam” will be “what is it?”, but the Olympic champion is already “wow”. We will do our best to tell people.
— Your medal will probably be the only one in Paris for our athletes. What does that mean to you?
“I haven’t thought about it yet, but it’s very cool.” We will do our best to bring home a gold medal. We will go all the way,” the correspondent reports, according to Andreeva’s words.
