tennis player Elena Rybakina admitted she felt more confident after losing to Belarusian tennis player Arina Sobolenko in the Australian Open final.
In the final match, the Belarusian beat the 2022 Wimbledon champion with the score 4:6, 6:3, 6:4.
“Now I have more confidence in myself, even after this final. I just have to work hard, like I did in pre-season, and, in fact, for many years. You have to be healthy and the results will come, I’m sure.
Maybe only a few girls play like Sobolenko. I just knew I had to serve well. The pressure also took its toll. As soon as opportunities presented themselves, I immediately took advantage of them. The game didn’t go the way I wanted.
It was a very powerful game for both of us. I don’t think there were a lot of strong players on the circuit. Maybe that, so to speak, encourages other tennis players to be more aggressive,” Australian Open press service Rybakin quotes.
