Tiafoe is photographed with a big Putin supporter. He’s a Russian hockey player
The tennis player has already finished the season and is now resting. He used this opportunity to go to the training of the Washington Capitals hockey team. There he met the captain of this team – Alexander Ovechkin – to whom he gave a souvenir tennis racket. A joint photo of both athletes appeared on the club’s social media.
This caused consternation among some of the tennis player’s fans. All because Ovechkin is a staunch supporter of Vladimir Putin. Even though the Russian officially condemned the war, his Instagram profile photo is still a photo of him with the President of Russia. Putin loves him. And no wonder, because he is a huge hockey fan. In addition, Ovechkin became famous for launching the “PutinTeam” social movement in 2017, which supported the politician in the election campaign.
– I just support my country. This is where I come from, this is where my parents live, this is where all my friends live. Like people in other countries, I support my president. It’s not about political issues – he then talked about “PutinTeam”.
Alexander Ovechkin, even though he is 38 years old, is still an active athlete. He has been playing for the Washington Capitals since 2005. This season he has played 15 games so far, scoring five goals and making seven assists. In the general classification, he is the best hockey player of his team.
