It had been a long time since there had been any trace of the former tennis player, Anna Kournikova, as the Russian is very private about her personal life. It's very common for her and her partner, Enrique Iglesias, not to appear much in public, especially with their children. So, it was not only surprising to see her shopping on the streets of Miami, but she reappeared in a wheelchair. It seems that the former player, who has been retired since 2007, had some mishap with her right leg, which was protected and immobilized with a walker boot.
Anna Kournikova was spotted on the streets of Miami, accompanied by the daughters she shares with Enrique Iglesias. What caught the most attention about the former Russian tennis player is that she is wearing an orthopedic boot and using a wheelchair. 👉 https://www.puntodebreak.com/en/tenis/SyfBiftxBF pic.com/m37vlv5yEd

Filippo Volandri, captain of the Italian Davis Cup team, shared a curious anecdote with SuperTennis, with Jannik Sinner. One key to the world number 1's success is how he enjoys the most delicate moments on a tennis court. Volandri exemplifies the difference between his mentality and that of other players: "The obsessive pursuit of details makes the difference, but he also has a crazy amount of fun. He enjoys being in tough moments. I remember in the Davis Cup, before the decisive doubles match against Argentina, Berrettini and I felt the tension of the moment. Jannik, instead, turned to us and said: 'guys, how cool are these moments?' He left us speechless. That's the difference. He can't wait to play those important points that others might see as a difficulty".
