Anastasia Potapova: Packing is the Worst Part of a Tennis Player’s Life

World No. 39 Anastasia Potapova revealed what she finds most annoying about being a professional tennis player.

“You know what`s one of the hardest things about our profession? It`s the constant packing and unpacking. You pack two suitcases for a trip, fly to a tournament, unpack them when you arrive. Then, you lose, pack those same suitcases again, fly home, unpack everything, wash it all. Literally on the same day, or the next day at the latest, you have to pack again to fly to another tournament. And you know exactly what happens next. Every single week!”

“A cry from the soul, forgive me.”
