Elena, three-time Grand Slam winner and 2016 Olympic doubles champion Vesnin in an interview with said that American tennis player Serena williams motivated all the other athletes on the circuit.
The American in the third round of the US Open lost to Australian Ayla Tomlyanovic with the score 5:7, 7:6 (7:4), 1:6. Earlier, the 40-year-old said the US Open could be the last tournament of his career.
“Williams had to leave at some point. Many wanted to see a fairy tale: Serena’s victory at her last US Open. But it was very difficult for her to win the title both physically and psychologically.
Yes, the fact that she beat such a serious opponent as Anette Kontaveit in the second round says it all. But still, in recent months she has not won major victories over the representatives of the top 10, each match was hard for her.
Too bad, of course, that the great champion is ending her career, but it is inevitable. Thanks to Serena for the years she gave us on tour, for the inspiration she gave everyone, how she motivated us and showed us that we have to go to every game like it’s was the last: to fight and win, despite the classification and the injuries. She’s an amazing athlete, person, mom. Let’s not forget that she returned to the circuit after the birth of a child and deserves nothing but admiration and best wishes.
– Do you agree with the opinion that in the women’s circuit there is not even an athlete as close as Serena, in terms of the breadth of her personality?
– Of course, the same Schwentek, with her game this season, has been talked about, but in terms of charisma and presentation of tennis, everyone is still far from being American. Serena and Venus Williams changed the game, breathed new life into it and it was something incredibly spellbinding: power, pressure, power shots!
Yes, Iga now plays good tennis, very nice. I also love her game, but the very appearance of Serena and Venus on the circuit was a phenomenon that changed the outlook on women’s tennis forever. The benchmark that they have set for so many years…I wish Schwentek would go in that direction, but it will be very difficult.
