Around the match

  • I think I adapt really well. When I need to, I read well when I'm overdoing or not doing enough. I feel like today you could see clearly how I was trying to change pace.

    Kostyuk M.WTA Tennis
  • This year was challenging because maybe I had too many expectations, or I lost two matches I wasn't expect to lose, then some doubts came into my mind. Hopefully I can come back in the top 10.
