Russian tennis player Mirra Andreeva said she would buy a dog in honor of being in the top 20 of the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) rankings, while she was sure she could be responsible for the pet.
On Wednesday, Andreeva reached the quarterfinals of the WTA 1000 tournament in Beijing. Next week, the 17-year-old Russian will debut in the top 20 of the world rankings.
Earlier, Andreeva said that her mother promised to buy her a dog if she made it into the top 20.
— I always wanted to have a dog. I have never had animals. And my mom said, “Well, if you’re in the top 20, I can give you a dog.” » Now I have the possibility to buy a dog whenever I want.
I don’t think I’ll buy a pet right away. I want to buy a dog when I am absolutely sure that I can give him everything I can, because he is like a little child. Now it’s a bit difficult. “I have to grow up to be able to take care of my dog,” Andreeva told the WTA official website.
In the quarterfinals, which will take place on Friday, Andreeva will face China’s Zheng Qingwen.
