Mikhail Kukushkin

While Mikhail Kukushkin - the director was finalizing the 2nd part of "Inadequate People", while promoting the comedy "Gift", which was awarded the "Best Debut" nomination at "Kinotavr-2019", Mikhail Kukushkin - the athlete managed to break his own record and reach the 4th round Wimbledon. At the same time, the tennis player was entrusted with an additional mission - to represent Kazakhstan alone, since Galina Voskoboeva (who played together with Denis Molchanov) left the competition.

At the end of 1987, Volgograd resident Tatyana Kukushkina decided to give her beloved husband Alexander a New Year present a week before the holiday, giving her son Misha the next day after Catholic Christmas. The boy's passion for sports began at preschool age, and his first mentor was his own father, a former tennis player.

In a 2019 interview, Mikhail, talking about his early biography, mentioned that when he was little, the family could afford little and lived modestly. To enable the heir to develop and grow professionally, she saved on food and outfits for her eldest daughter Katya, who also made progress on the court in the past.

Then the training took all his time and took place before lessons, then after, or even instead. Comfortable conditions for classes were not expected, they had to hone their skills in an empty swimming pool and even on a wooden platform located on the territory of the existing prison.

At the disposal of the future star, there was one single racket, which was guarded like the apple of an eye, rewound and repaired many times as needed. By the way, according to the celebrity, in his entire career he has never broken the equipment necessary for the game (and continues to do so now) - such is the strength of the habit developed since childhood.

When asked by journalists why this particular sport was chosen, the man answered that it is more dynamic than others, and here, in addition to physical data (height 183 cm with a weight of 72 kg), intellectual training is also important. And he likes to think a lot.

In 2006, Kukushkin made it to the decisive match of ITF Futures, and 2 years later he got 1st place in the competitions of the same series. In 2007, he won the ATP Challenger twice, consolidating his success by participating in the main draw of the ATP tournament. The following year, the guy managed to conquer the Challenger for the third time and make an important and balanced decision to move from Russia to Kazakhstan.

Leaving home, family, friends was not easy, of course, no guarantees were given to him in a new place, but Kukushkina did not abandon her faith in herself and in her capabilities. Plus - he understood that he had many times more opportunities to develop in another country.

2009 brought the athlete a stay in the main "line-up" of the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 and the Estoril and Malaysian open championships and, of course, victories at the Kremlin Cup and Challenger. And only Mikhail Youzhny managed to interrupt the series of successful results, forcing him to stop one step away from the final ATP competitions.

But, showing due patience and skill, Kukushkin after 12 months was still able to win the tournament of the Association of Professional Tennis Players. Then he made his debut in the Grand Slam.

In 2012, Mikhail left his "workplace" for six months - injuries and subsequent hip surgeries affected. Two years later, at the XVII Asian Games, in a team with Andrey Golubev and Alexander Nedovesov, Kukushkin won gold.

By 2018, the man managed to improve his singles ranking and take 53rd place in the ATP ranking.

In 2011, the professional and personal life of Mikhail Alexandrovich merged into one. The fact is that his bride, and then his wife Anastasia Ulikhina (Kukushkina), became the new coach. The girl supported her lover as best she could - she adjusted training programs for him, found worthy sparring partners and made every effort to achieve high performance.

Of course, it was not without difficulties, but in general the couple liked to work side by side. But, be that as it may, after more than 7 years of marriage, in the spring of 2018, the couple filed for divorce.

On December 20 of the same year, on his personal page on the Instagram social network, Kukushkin posted a joint photo with his new beloved Nastya Usova. According to the man, his beloved and part-time muse helps him to be more confident in himself than before and to achieve his goals.

Despite the fact that Mikhail's heart is devoted to tennis, he does not forget to root for Russians and Kazakhstanis in any other sport, be it football or curling. He spends his free time reading books and watching movies.

In July 2019, the tennis player improved the results of previous years and reached the 1/8 finals of Wimbledon, leaving behind titled opponents Jan-Lennard Struff, John Isner and Pablo Andujar.

In 1/4, Kei Nishikori did not let him in (so far, all the meetings between the two athletes ended in favor of the Japanese). In the June ATP singles matches ahead of Wimbledon, he was defeated by Richard Gasquet, Jeremy Chardy and Sam Querrey. Only Lorenzo Sonego was defeated.

However, Kukushkin did not lose the charge of optimism and good spirits, as evidenced by an emotional post on a social network with gratitude to the fans and organizers.
