Yastremska supports Djokovic for staging the Adria Tour

Dayana Yastremska is currently in Ukraine where she is spending her time before tennis resumes. Like most tennis players, the world no.25 followed the Adria Tour and she was stunned by what has happened.

Dayana wrote along with the message on Instagram supporting Novak Djokovic. As a first statement, Dayana stressed the fact that being famous means being an ambassador and a role model.

“When you are famous, when you compete at the top level, the eyes of a thousand are inevitably chained to you. The first one has to accept the role of the ambassador of a sort, while he becomes a role model for many.
It doesn’t matter if you play at side court or in the central arena – as a tennis player, you always try to show the best you can and share the emotions with your team and other people around you.”

Then Dayana talked about the anxiety about our beloved sport being halted by the pandemic.

“Tennis is an incredible sport, with a long history and unique culture. Things that are happening in the world this year are unthinkable and are undoubtfully a massive blow to our favorite sport.

Every tennis player had their plans, aspirations, and goals for this year. Now, and I am sure about that, every one of us has only these questions in the head. These questions are: “When we start playing and giving people joy and inspiration?” and “When we will finally start to do our favorite thing?”She added.

The Dayana came in support of Novak Djokovic stressing the fact that eventually the organization of the Adria Tour followed the compliance of the local authorities.

“I am afflicted and upset by the situation that has emerged around the organization of the “Adria Tour” tournament in Serbia. The organizers and players of the event found themselves under tremendous pressure. It is somehow even getting out of sight that this competition was held in compliance with the country’s norms and regulations. If I had an opportunity to host the same kind of tournament, I would not hesitate a second.
I am the head and organizer of “Diya” Charity Foundation that directly helped people at the course of the pandemic.”
