Sabalenka in Dubai, here her words
Aryna Sabalenka’s 2023 has been nothing short of extraordinary so far. The tennis player’s numbers are astonishing, thirteen victories in as many matches and the athlete finally broke free even in the Grand Slam question with the extraordinary victory in Melbourne. Aryna really seems to be the first candidate to be able to challenge the dominance of the Polish Iga Swiatek.
The tennis player stalked about this and many topics in the press conference, and she released the following statements, after the victory against Jelena Ostapenko and before the defeat against Krejcikova: “It was a difficult match, my opponent played great tennis throughout the first set I didn’t expect to play at such a high pace, things were going badly but suddenly, almost like magic, the match turned around and things went well.
I played more aggressive, I advanced my position on the court and I caused her quite a few problems, especially on serve. In the end I’m really happy with my performance and my victory. I worked from behind and tried to recover, I gave my best and in the end it went well. This year I feel very good about my service, I feel like if something is wrong, I could use my service to fix everything.
At first against Ostapenko my serve didn’t go as usual, so I tried to vary it and in the end the truth is that compared to the past I can still stay in the running. My team? There’s not much to say about this, they don’t tell me much on the pitch because we’ve already discussed everything before the match, I know exactly what to do and they know it too. So the only thing they can tell me to do is shut up, fight and push hard against my opponent. And in the end all this helps me.”
