Vesnina called Samsonova the most progressive tennis player in Russia

Elena, three-time Grand Slam winner and 2016 Olympic doubles champion Vesnin in an interview with said that Lyudmila Samsonova is the most progressive Russian tennis player.

On Sunday, September 4, Samsonova in the fourth round of the US Open will play with Australian Ayla Tomlyanovic, who knocked out 23-time Grand Slam winner Serena Williams of the United States in the final round.

– He is probably the fastest growing tennis player in Russia in the last two years. During this time, she had so many events in her career that some have not happened in 10 years. She’s great, I really like the way Lyudmila plays. She has a nice strong tennis.

And I’m calm before the match between Samsonova and Tomlyanovic, although Ayla has a lot of experience. The Australian has been on the circuit for many years, stopped Serena Williams herself – had an incredible fight and showed her will to withstand the pressure from the stands. However, after a rough night meeting, you need to recover. It’s one thing to go to center court against Serena, it’s another to play with Samsonova in a not so big arena with a completely different vibe. It may also affect the Aussie’s performance. I look forward to a good match, and Lyudmila is very likely to go further, Vesnina told .

At the start of the US Open, Samsonova defeated Czech Sarah Beylek (6:3, 6:1), then defeated last year’s tournament runner-up Leyla Fernandez of Canada (6:3, 7:6 ( 7:3)), and won in the third round the Serbian Alexandra Krunic (6:3, 6:3).
