“Bencic gave fresh comments about its shape and new reality in the round”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
Before the match with “neutral” Mirra Andreeva Benchich gave fresh comments about her shape and new reality in the tour.
The best result on Wimbledon
“I am very happy. Finally, I managed to take the next step and go to the quarterfinals, so I feel some relief. I think the match turned out to be wonderful, although there are always nerves at the end of the game. I am satisfied with how everything happened. We have already met her at the last tournament in Bad-Khoburg, but I think I played much better this time. This is what became decisive. ”
Feeling after victory
“At that moment you feel all the stress disappears, the body responds to it – you exhale deeply, knowing that you no longer need to worry about the next draw. This is how it is felt – how work is done. Relief is the strongest emotional feeling at such moments, but there is also a joy after all this struggle. The heart beats very often. It is difficult to describe or reduce to any one emotion – a frantic number of thoughts is swept in the head. ”
Message for all moms
“It is difficult to give advice, each has its own story. But you can say for sure: you need to be ready, confident that you are going to do. There is no point in making yourself because you need to get back to work – you need to be prepared for the fact that not everything will work perfectly. Sometimes you need to let go some things when you’re mom. The main thing is to maintain dedication, but to afford something not to have time. I was very lucky that I have the support of the whole family, especially my husband. And I would not like to say that in such a situation only moms – dads, too. It is important to point out. ”
Unexpected results
“Honestly, I’m surprised, but I am very pleased. I try not to think about it too much. I felt great at every workout – this is what allowed me to return earlier than expected, even earlier than I thought. I am surprised how quickly the results came, but this is the result of all the work done. Hence my mood today. Now I am taught completely in every match, I am struggling to the end. I still have a great desire to win. Yes, a lot has changed, but I do not complain. ”
Life in the round as a mom
“Everything has become different, especially in the approach. I train less than before, but I try to do my best at the court in every match. It seems to me that I became more productive – simply because I have less time. Life in a tour is a little more difficult, but we try to make it as normal as possible. As for the game itself, the feeling is the same. When I go to the court, I am the same tennis player as before. I still have emotional involvement – maybe not as pronounced as before, but it is still very important for me to perform. I want to show the maximum – on the court I stay myself. ”
The only mom in the net
“It’s not that strange, but I’m pleased. I was really inspired by other athletes. I usually do not look at the tournament grid, I didn’t even realize that I was a single mom – and that I need ›I need to win – that’s not working. I think everyone has their own story: someone returns after the injury, someone was a young hope, someone has long been on the round. In general, I am glad for everyone who is well. Sport does everything possible to move in the right direction – to have a choice for moms to have a family and continue their careers. I think a lot is done correctly, and this is an example for other sports. ”
Communication with Wimbledon
“I do not remember the title of Hingis, because it was in 1997-in the year of my birth. But I looked at that victory many times. It seems that my first conscious moment associated with Wimbledon is 2003, when Roger Feder raised the trophy. I was six then. At that moment I said: ‹I want to hold this Cup once›. It was then that I realized that women have another trophy. This is the first thing I remember. And then were all the years when Roger won – my family and I always followed him, in particular the legendary finale of 2008 against Nadal. I have a lot of memories of Wimbledon since childhood – then I dreamed of playing here. ”
Adaptation to the grass
“It happened natural. I first played on the grass at the Junior Tournament in Halle – it was the first acquaintance with a cover, the first blows on the ball. From the very beginning, I really liked this feeling – nothing had to be changed. Personally, I would like the herbal season to be longer. It would be great if the WTA 1000 tournament appeared on the grass – although I understand it is difficult. If so, I would choose to play all four herbal tournaments – one week. Although, of course, Vimbledon also needs to save strength. It’s hard to go through this season without playing. And the feeling that he just started – and already Wimbledon. It is a pity that everything is flying so fast. ”
