“I have to say that I am extremely grateful. I remember last year I dreamed of being able to play at Rod Laver Arena again. This year it happened, so one of my dreams has already become reality.
However, now I am very unhappy with the outcome because the standards I set for myself are incredibly high. I try to remember that I was pregnant six months ago and I can’t expect amazing results when I come back. But that doesn’t do much to quell the thoughts.

Understanding the importance of time is a skill I learned after Shai was born. What worried me before doesn’t bother me anymore: I just don’t have time for it. As a result, I feel like I no longer have time to mope over losses – the world doesn’t stand still and I need to keep moving forward.
I have mixed emotions – I’m sorry to be leaving Melbourne so early, but I’m looking forward to meeting Shai. I’m glad I’ll be home when she crawls for the first time❤️,” the athlete wrote on social media.
