Russians rule the WTA 10-year challenge

A few days ago, Russian Alla Kudryavtseva posted the ultimate Instagram photo series as the ten-year challenge meme, showing how much she and her fellow WTA stars from Russia have changed in the past decade. We know that baby boom has taken over women’s tennis, but Alla reminded us to what extent.

This 2008 photo shows Elena Vesnina, Alla Kudryavtseva, Nadia Petrova and Anna Chakvetadze (from left to right). Ten years later, they are all moms enjoying family life.

Three years into her marriage with Pavel Tabuntsov, Vesnina brought daughter Elizabeth into this world in November 2018.
