Around the match

  • When the draw came out and I saw it, I was like, 'Oh man.' It's so exciting to get this opportunity. When I was growing up, I always saw her on TV, so to get to play her is really crazy.

  • My coach told me, 'I don't want to see you moving slow; all I want to see is for your legs to go fast.' I tried to focus on that, tried to get as many balls back as I could.
