Yesterday shabake varzesh showed two tennis masters finals game, the quality was good, they also try to explain things for people that don't know much about this sport. They should do it more for big tournaments and should have been done before when federer nadal djokovic were at their peak
Some news heard during the tennis game Shabake varzesh was showing tonight :
- efftetah of 88 new or renovated tennis courts through Iran
- Kasra Rahmani, 18 years old, reach the main draw of Tunisia tournament. First time for an Iranian player outside tournaments in Iran
- Kasra Rahmani trained with Daniil Medvedev, world number 5, 3 weeks ago in France
That is amazing to train with such a tennis superstar. I wish him luck and it would be so refreshing to name an Iranian tennis player aside Mansour Bahrami.
