Kasatkina to Continue Tennis Career Under the Australian Flag
Kasatkina, born in Russia, stated that she is happy to begin a new chapter in her tennis career under the Australian flag. Her remarks were made at the Charleston Open tournament. Kasatkina told journalists that today is her first day as part of the Australian team. The athlete has obtained residency in Australia. Reporters noted her use of Australian conversational expressions. Daria is not rushing to publicly express her emotions. What has happened, of course, stirs strong feelings. However, it’s certain that this marks the beginning of a new chapter in her life. Changing countries and now representing Australia on the sports stage is something only an extraordinarily brave person could do. Originally from Tolyatti, she left her homeland more than two years ago. One of the reasons was her identity as a lesbian, while another was the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. She belongs to a generation whose minds have been influenced by Western ideals of freedom, which are now being challenged by Trump.
