The Russian player shared a clip on her Instagram story where she was talking to Ons Jabeur during their practice sessions. “Girl Talk” captioned Kalinskaya highlighting her newly blossomed friendship with the Tunisian.
The moment was captured when Kalinskaya and Jabeur were practicing their respective quarterfinals against Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff.
Kalinskaya and Jabeur faced off against each other in last year’s Charleston Open. When the Russian retired in the quarterfinals helping Jabeur to move to the semis, the Tunisian offered a warm hug to Kalinskaya. She also wished a speedy recovery for the Russian player. Anna Kalisnkaya’s off-court time is indulged in family time. After hectic tennis scheduling, players often complain about missing out on spending time with close ones. It looks like the Russian considered her feelings and made the most of it with her friends and family.
