The 2020 Australian Open quarterfinalist spoke on the tennis and chess comparison and stated, “I hope and I think chess can help in tennis, maybe strategy-wise, it can help you have better patience. In my case, I’m playing chess the same way as tennis. I try to take a queen and lead the match like in tennis I try to take the forehand and be the one who is dictating.”
The Russian youngster revealed his attacking mindset, which is to attack by only using the queen in chess. However, he ultimately stated that the two sports are different from each other.
