– After winning Australia (Australian Open – editor’s note), I went to Roland Garros with the certainty that I could win it too. This victory gave me a lot of confidence. It wouldn’t have been great to lose even in the first round, but I served well and played well. It was probably the toughest match. Then, with each game, it was easier and easier.
In the final, it was difficult because I was tired, because I also played doubles competitions, ”Korneeva said on the show“ Everything for the match! on the channel.
Korneeva, 15, takes the 329th place in the WTA rankings. The Russian woman has two titles in ITF tournaments, and she also has a win at the junior Australian Open.
