Haddad Maya commented on the victory over Kostyuk
world number 20 Beatrice Haddad Maya From Brazil, she summarized her second-round match against Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk at the WTA 500 tournament in San Diego.
“Today was an emotional match for me. There were a lot of ups and downs. I didn’t serve well, but sometimes when you don’t feel comfortable, when you feel the pressure of not being able to play your best tennis, you still have to find a way to win. Marta played well today and I knew it was going to be a mental challenge.
I think I was leading in most three-set matches. This puts my team and family at risk of heart attack. It is not easy for me to play my best tennis in every match and my opponents are also playing well. This is tennis, you have to find a way to win. I am a strong person, I work hard, that is why I win these matches,” said Haddad Maya.
Note that Beatrice played her fifth game of the season that lasted more than 3 hours. Later, he will meet Czech Barbora Krejcikova.
