Athletistic/Tennis. Russian Tennis Federation (RTF) President Shamil Tarpischev has responded to Russian State Duma Deputy Roman Teryushkov, who criticized Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev for living in France.
“I don’t understand where he is coming from?! He is not an athlete, it is even pointless to argue with him. As for Medvedev, he trained in Moscow under the guidance of Ekaterina Kryuchkova. Yes, his sister works in Paris, he lived there, and that’s normal. At different times, our tennis players have trained all over Europe, because it simplifies the movement. We have been in tennis all our lives, and if anyone knows how to build a system better, let him say: “Tarpishchev said, adding that he does not have the experience that there is no doubt that all Russian tennis players are patriots from their country.
On August 7, Roman Teryushkov congratulated Daniil Medvedev on his Telegram channel for winning the tournament in Los Cabos, Mexico, but mentioned that he should not be called a “Russian tennis player”, but a “player French tennis player of Russian origin”.
