His partner is Marta Sirotkina (RUS, WTA singles CH 115 in 2013) and their son (who I'm guessing was born last year) is called Leo (a name that works in both English and Russian, which might have been a factor!)

So maybe this is just an Oli comeback!?! I see he's down on the Alts list the next two weeks as well. Will be interesting to see what does come of this. After a few years out he might have got the bug again. Only time will tell. Maybe he's just playing there to help him learn Russian!
On a side note went to Minsk on my travels in May think I went past a tennis centre on the red bus tour.
NB No idea what shape Oli is in, but Lény M is not a player I rate highly - he's been playing a lot, and is a worker, and gets zero help from the federation (plays team tennis and money events to try and get by), so I wish him well - but he's not really got any results to speak of and is a standard counter-attacker. (Although counter-attackers might be hard to beat for someone like Oli).
