Australian Open star won't risk Vladimir Putin's wrath despite Olympic restrictions
Mirra Andreeva has no intention of following in Daria Kasatkina's footsteps and changing her nationality. The 18-year-old is restricted from competing in several events, including the Olympics and the Davis Cup, under the Russian flag.
Instead, she must participate as a neutral athlete without the flag or national anthem, having partnered with Diana Shnaider in Paris 2024 to secure a silver medal under the title Individual Neutral Athletes. Several players have ceased representing Russia since Vladimir Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine began in 2022. One of the most recent is Russian-born Kasatkina, who recently obtained Australian citizenship.
Similarly, Anastasia Potapova now plays for Austria after switching in December. However, Andreeva hasn't contemplated emulating her colleagues despite spending the past few years training in Cannes, France. "I haven't even thought about it, I've heard and seen it lately, especially about Kasatkina and how she changed her citizenship," the teenager said at the Australian Open. It came as Naomi Osaka hit out at her Australian Open opponent after a heated argument.
