Belarusian star Victoria Azarenka gave birth to her son Leo back on 19th December 2016. And apparently, he wants to follow in his mom’s footsteps and play tennis.
Azarenka was naturally delighted about this, as she said, “For me, the most amazing moment that he likes to play tennis. He wants to go hit some balls. He does not want to hit a backhand at all, like I have to bribe him with things to hit backhands. It’s really sad cause he actually hits it so well.”
In the future, Leo may actually like playing backhands, and maybe he could play it as well as his idol – his mom. Azarenka shared a touching story about this saying, “His dad was asking him, ‘What do you wanna do when you grow up?’ He’s like, ‘I wanna be like mom,’ That for me was very heartwarming.”
