"I chose tennis and he failed me in my last exam": Victoria Azarenka shares career path if not for tennis as classical musician
WTATuesday, 26 March 2024 at 19:30
Victoria Azarenka commented that she would have liked to dedicate herself to playing the piano if she weren't a tennis player. The former world No. 1 mentioned that she had to choose between tennis and music, and her choice for sports led her to fail her last piano test.
The Belarusian has had a good run at the Miami Open, with victories over Peyton Stearns, Zheng Qinwen (No. 7), and Katie Boulter (No. 24), reaching the quarterfinals of the Miami Open, where she will face Yulia Putintseva.
Azarenka recently commented on her love for classical music and that she played the piano for a long time in her childhood, so she would have liked to pursue a career as a musician if she hadn't become a tennis player:
“When I was a kid, I played all kind of different sports and I was actually playing piano and I was had quite a pretty good talent in that. My music teacher was having really hopes for me in piano. And then he actually made me choose between piano and tennis. When I was 12-13 years old I would say, and I choose tennis and he failed me in my last exam,” she said.
“So it kind of broke my heart a little bit to try to play piano again, but I really enjoy classical music, I enjoy music a lot. So I don’t know if I would have been a musician, at the time, but I feel like I do have sort of special relationship with that,” the 2-times Grand Slam champion added.
