“Anna is impressive with the progress she has made. She felt confident. Tennis has been showing this for a long time, but maybe this “little bit” of confidence that was always missing has now emerged. Probably after the Australian Open. Perhaps only Swiatek is always one of the favorites in women’s tennis. It could also be Sabalenka and Rybakina, who have not performed very well this season. And so any of the girls can perform at any tournament and present a surprise. I think Kalinskaya can go even further,” says Olkhovsky.
