Tomorrow the days will pass and you will be here to support me. A dream of Mayar Sharif that she shared with her family while watching a Roland Garros tennis tournament.
Mayar’s dream was greeted with a smile from his sister Dalia, and her response was a challenge.Everyone will come and you won’t According to his other sister Rana.
Today, Tuesday morning, all Egyptians have turned to the Roland Garros tennis tournament, one of the main tournaments, but this time to support an Egyptian champion named Mayar Sharif.
This week, Mayar achieved a series of records in Egyptian women’s tennis history, becoming the first Egyptian to win a major “Grand Slam” tournament and also the first Egyptian to reach the main round of the Roland Garros tournament.
The adventure of Mayar Sharif, number 172 in the world, ended in a more than wonderful way after losing to the fourth and second in the world, Czech Karolina Pliskova, in the championship, with great difficulty in two sets to one.
The beginning of the dream:
Mayar Sharif was born in May 1996 – 24 years old – and began his tennis career from his childhood at the age of five.
Mayar played tennis like her older sister Rana, and her sisters Dalia and Rawan also play it.
Mayar was very attached to the game and her ambition to participate professionally became the heroes you see on television.
“I remember when I was 13 years old, jumping for joy that Roger Federer was crowned champion,” Mayar said in a statement to the official Roland Garros website.
وفتعت “I am trying to achieve an achievement that will last for many years.”
Rana, Mayar’s older sister, wrote through her personal account. “We were watching the Roland Garros championship before, and Mayar told my mother, tomorrow the day will come when you will be in the stadium to support me. My sister Dalia laughed to tell Mayar that everyone comes except her..
Mayar began his career with the game towards the achievement of his dreams, gradually, in different academies and clubs.
Mayar starred in the junior stage and climbed the world rankings at that stage, before walking away from competition for a while.
New obstacle:
Mayar stopped participating in junior championships after graduating from school before joining Berden University in California, USA.
During that period, Mayar joined his college tennis team and participated in many college tournaments and achieved distinguished singles and doubles records.
She used to visit Mayar Egypt at that time periodically and participate in some tournaments like the one held in Sharm El-Sheikh to be in the world rankings.
In 2017, Mayar won number one in the largest college championships in the US Western Division.
Her sister Rana said on her page about the incident: “We were happy with what Mayar accomplished at the time. After winning number one in the major university tournaments, she defeated Tunisian Anas Jaber in the Canadian Open qualifiers.” .
وفتعت “There are those who faced this with sarcasm, because it is an insignificant local tournament, and Mayar’s trip to university in America stopped her career and it is difficult for her to return again..
Mayar finished his college degree in 2018 and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sports medicine, specifically in tennis injuries.
2019 turning point:
Mayar graduated from college and started the steps again to make his dream come true and play at a professional level.
Mayar did not start in the main tournaments and in fact managed to advance in the world rankings and reached the 300 best players in the world.
The big turning point was in August, when he participated in the African Games in Morocco, and Mayar won gold in the singles and doubles competition.
Mayar qualified for the Tokyo Olympics as the first Egyptian to participate in the Olympiad at the tennis level, but only on the condition that her ranking is among the 300 best players in the world before the start of the tournament and her moment was the No. 212.
Mayar became famous among Egyptian fans after qualifying for the Olympiad, and everyone was looking forward to what he would present during the next period.
The dream came true:
Mayar’s dream of participating in one of the great “Grand Slam” tournaments came true when he participated in the Australian Open last January.
Mayar played American Anne Lee in the first introductory role in her quest to write history and fulfill her dream of qualifying for the title role.
Unsurprisingly, Mayar was eliminated from the preliminary round, but with a loss that was close to two sets, 3-6, 5-7.
Mayar’s dream came true this time when she participated in the Roland Garros tournament, she spoke with her family that one day she would be here and they would come to support her like these heroes.
Mayar managed to write history last week by defeating Colombian María Osorio in two sets without an answer (6-4, 6-0). Mayar’s victory had a great echo as she became the first Egyptian player in history to win a match in a major “Grand Slam” tournament.
Mayar’s ambition, ranked 172nd in the world, didn’t stop there, and she achieved in the second preliminary round by defeating American Katie McNally, ranked 120th in the world in straight sets for nothing (6-2, 6- 4).
Mayar became one step away from writing a new story as the first Egyptian to reach the main role in the Grand Slam tournament, specifically Roland Garros, and defeated Julia Gatto, ranked 156 in Italy, with the same score (6-1 , 6-3) to enter the story.
Mayar qualified for the title role, colliding with fourth Czech Karolina Pliskova, second in the tournament, and our Egyptian heroine was expected to lose easily, but that did not happen.
Mayar had a more than wonderful performance and won the first set 7-6 before losing in the second 2-6 and in the deciding set, Mayar narrowly lost 4-6 to graduate the golden Egyptian girl with her head held high in front. to the world.
High praise:
Mayar Sharif has been widely acclaimed for her brilliant achievement at Roland Garros both locally and internationally.
Even Pliskova said of her after the match: “It was a very difficult match and I think I played well and is a very tough opponent.”
The British newspaper, The Guardian, was praised for what he presented during the match, saying: “Mayar Sharif, with his way of playing forwards, his excellent plays and his wit made their match hell for Pelskova, and he refused to give defeated. We will see more Mayar in the coming years and it will be wonderful if she inspires more players. Egyptians and Africans step in. “
Regarding the French magazine L’Equipe, she said: “Mayar Sherif, the 172nd Egyptian in the world and the first player from her country to participate in a major tennis tournament, made things quite difficult for Belskova in a match that it lasted two and a quarter hours. “
Turning to the official website of the Tennis Federation, he said: “Sharif put in an unforgettable performance and broke two serves for Belskova in the first set, but that was not enough to upset the Czechs further.”
He praised the achievement of the Egyptian champions Mayar in several matches, led by Mohamed Salah, the star of Liverpool and the Egyptian team, who revealed through the website “Instagram”, his vision of the historic match of the Egyptian champion.
Additionally, squash stars Ali Farag and Nour El-Sherbiny, who previously topped the world rankings, praised Mayar’s achievement and his presence in the match despite his participation in a major international squash tournament today.
Whats Next:
Do Mayar’s ambitions stop at that achievement? Certainly this is not what the Egyptian heroine, or even the followers they clung to, wished for their level and won their approval.
Speaking before Roland Garros, Mayar said: “I always followed the list of the 100 best players in the world, I wondered why we weren’t here.”
“I walk step by step towards my dreams, and I hope to reach that list one day.
Mayar’s greatest ambition now is to advance towards the list of the 100 best players in the world, Mayara, ranked 172nd, had her best ranking last August when she reached 170th position.
The second aspiration that is expected is a greater participation of Meyer in the main tournaments, Grand Slam and more achievements.
With Mayar Sharif qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics, what is expected is certainly not an Olympic medal, but more achievements in the competition.
