Athletistic/Tennis. Russia’s most successful tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov shared his thoughts on Diana Schneider ahead of her US Open round of 16 match against American Jessica Pegula.

Schneider won three tournaments on different surfaces this season and won a silver medal at the Paris Olympics with Mirra Andreeva.

“Diana is having a great season and is making the most of her potential. Her game is promising and I hope she continues to develop it. I am pleased with her performances.

Women’s tennis is very unpredictable. Sometimes the favorites do not live up to expectations, and players like Diana Schneider, who were not considered the best tennis players, can surprise with their results. Let him keep trying. We will support her and wish her all the best in today’s match,” Kafelnikov said in an interview with Soviet Sport.

The match between Pegula and Schneider will take place today, September 2, and will start no earlier than 19:00 Moscow time.
