Russia's number one female player says she is happy to return to Wimbledon this year and feels, that as a Russian, she plays the "luckiest sport".
World number eight Daria Kasatkina has previously criticised her country's invasion of Ukraine and described the war as a "full-blown nightmare."
Russians and Belarusians will be back at Wimbledon after the All England Club lifted the ban it imposed last year.
They were banned in response to the war, which is supported by Belarus.
Players competing this year must complete a personal declaration which distances them from the war and the state.
