Around the match

  • I felt very frustrated in the first set, but I'm happy that I never gave up and I think that's the most important.

  • There was a huge mutual respect for the great match that we had. Super gracious and a lot of respect for Caty.

  • I feel like it can't be coincidental, I don't think. It's weird for me as well because I really hate playing lefties and it's just not comfortable, like the entire match you are uncomfortable, but maybe I feel like because I have good timing, I'm kind of able to switch.
