Amanda Anisimova has reacted to Daria Kasatkina's video of her hotel room view in Ohio during the 2024 Cincinnati Open. The Russian lightheartedly poked fun at the view in response to people who find her lucky for being able to travel around the world.

The World No. 12 recently arrived in Cincinnati to take part in the WTA 1000 event being played at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason, Ohio. She uploaded a TikTok video of her room where she showed the seemingly underwhelming view from her hotel room window.

In what is a lighthearted joke for people who consider her professional travels a boon, Kasatkina captioned the video sarcastically repeating a phrase she might have heard a lot from such people:

"'You're so lucky you get to travel everywhere for work.'"

Daria Kasatkina's video reached Amanda Anisimova and it had her amused as the American reposted it on X (formerly Twitter) and said, beginning with emojis:

"😂😂😂😂 lollllll"

Notably, Anisimova's reaction came just hours after she burst into tears post her 2024 Canadian Open final against Jessica Pegula.

The 22-year-old returned to action this year after taking a break to prioritize her mental health and reached her fourth WTA-tour level final in Canada. However, she lost the final 3-6, 6-2, 1-6 and let out her frustration by throwing her racket, before tearing up on the bench.

Amanda Anisimova and Daria Kasatkina will next take to the courts in Cincinnati.

Daria Kasatkina is seeded ninth at the 2024 Cincinnati Open and will take on compatriot Ekaterina Alexandrova in the first round. Their match will be played on Tuesday, August 13 on Court 10.

This will be the fifth meeting between the Russians. From their past four meetings, their head-to-head is tied at 2-2. Alexandrova won their last match at the 2022 Ostrava Open in straight sets.

Meanwhile, with her impressive display in the Canadian Open, Amanda Anisimova too has earned a spot in the main draw of the Cincinnati Open. Moreover, the American has also achieved a huge jump of 83 spots in the latest WTA rankings as she is now placed at World No. 49.

Anisimova will face 14th seed Victoria Azarenka in the first round in Cincinnati. The pair have faced off twice before and have won once each. The American won their first encounter in straight sets at the 2022 Madrid Open. Later, the Belarusian bagged the match against Anisimova in three sets in Dubai last year.
