Russian golf champion, lawyer Alexander Dobrovinsky in an interview with said that the former tennis player Eugene Kafelnikov wanted to win an Olympic gold medal in golf.
Russian Kafelnikov is Olympic tennis champion; in 2000 he won the Sydney Olympics in singles.
— You like golf. Who did you manage to play with?
— We are in the same club as Yevgeny Kafelnikov. He became an Olympic tennis champion and wanted to repeat this feat in golf. However, none of the world’s great tennis players could achieve this by retiring from their sport, as golf is a completely different story.
Personally, I haven’t played against Kafelnikov, but he is very good, a healthy guy. Once I played for one team and Evgeniy for another. A nice man, a talented golfer and a great tennis player. We also played in the same tournament with hockey player Alexei Kovalev, he is an absolutely wonderful person. When I was playing golf in Thailand, I unexpectedly found myself with tennis player Ivan Lendl. We played 18 holes with him, it was nice,” Dobrovinsky told .
