Anna's talent for tennis was first discovered when she played at a weekly children's sports program, at the age of 5. She started to play and practice more often, in places such as the Tennis Club Sokliki Park and in the Spartak Club, despite the fact that her family was not financially well off. While still in Moscow, Anna's first tennis coach was Larissa Preobraschenskaja, from 1985 until 1989. The budding tennis player trained and practiced while she was going to school.
As a cover girl, Anna was named one of People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People in the World in 1998, and graced the cover of Sports Illustrated's June 2000 edition.
