Amanda Anisimova talked about making friends on tour

In that interview, Amanda talked about the difficulties of making a friend on the Tour. According to her, if it was a team sport, she would make a lot of friends. However, that’s not the case in tennis as she felt it’s hard to connect with anyone because they have to do everything on their own. 

“I think it’s hard because it’s not like a team sport. I think, if it was a team sport, it would be so much easier. At least if there are a couple of tournaments in the year where we like, play it as a team, cause we do everything on our own, makes it like harder for us to connect,” Amanda said
