Bulgaria has a new sports couple – Tennis – Women
The ace of Bulgarian swimming Anthony Ivanov and the tennis player Daria Radulova are our new sports couple. They became close in the United States, where they study together – at the University of Virginia Tech. This is clear from their participation in the BNR podcast “Initial Strike”.
Anthony and Daria have been together in the United States since the beginning of the school year. The swimmer has been training at the University of Virginia Tech since 2019. Daria is a former Bulgarian women’s champion and reached the semifinals of the 14-year-old Orange Bowl. Ivanov has participated in seven finals of the World and European Men’s Swimming Championships.
“I was very happy with Rafael Nadal’s title at the Australian Open. He’s always been my favorite, but I didn’t expect him to perform so well on the hard courts. Djokovic’s lack of security has certainly helped. Everyone around me was not for Nadal, including Daria. I got up at 3:30 in the morning to watch the finale. We were a little disappointed with Grisho’s elimination, but there are other tournaments, “the swimmer commented.
“I never planned or imagined that I would study in the United States and play tennis there. But that’s how things turned out, that at one point I decided that this was the best way to continue my career,” Daria said.
That’s how I ended up at the university, where I met Anthony. We officially met for the first time in the canteen, before that we had written on social networks. From now on we are inseparable, except for the hours we train. We understand each other well and we help each other a lot “, added Radulova.
22-year-old Anthony Ivanov dreams of participating in two more Olympics, Radulova has also always wanted to play in an Olympic tennis tournament. The swimming star also admitted that he dreams of starting a family with Daria.
