It’s been more than a year since Rafa Nadal It ended one of the best careers in sports history. The manacorí said goodbye playing with Spain in the Finals of the Davis Cup. Months after his goodbye, Rafa continues to be part of the tennis news, either because of his statements or because of tennis players who talk about him (there are several).
Nadal It will always be part of tennis. His influence on racquet sport has been such that he is the example to follow for any player who wants to make a name for himself in elite tennis. This is the case of the young Russian woman, Mirra Andreeva.
This tennis player born in the city of Krasnoyarsk has only 18 years and is already part of the world top-10 on the women’s circuit. He was a silver medalist in the last Paris Olympic Games in the doubles category and her coach is nothing more and nothing less than the Spanish Conchita Martinez.
Andieva has surprised by leaving some very striking statements about his philosophy. The Russian tennis player advances on her path through the tennis elite following Nadal’s philosophy: “Like any other player, I want to win several Grand Slamsbut honestly, what I want is to continue being myself, to also be a player who is remembered for being striking on the court, for doing what she wanted on the court, for being interesting.”
“And always be humble, as Rafa (Nadal) said. I hope I can be someone who deserves to be remembered on the circuit,” Mira confesses in a statement to ‘sntv’.
