I saw Nadia play doubles with Kirilenko once at Wimbledon. I was right by the court. Absolutely incredible skills - made the other three professionals on the court look like mugs. She just didn’t have the mental chops to win more. On the other hand Maria was slightly less talented but a mental beast.
Nadia Petrova was a very dangerous opponent. She had what it took to win at least one slam. Sharapova is one of the greatest players in history

@@Ttjam1 I agree with you
Sadly, Nadia's mother, who is in the stands watching her here, died in a car crash in 2013.
Petrova hated to lose to Maria u can feel it 🤣🤣🤣
So many close matches that Maria won 😍
🥰🥰🥰
