“Sorry but I don’t know you, tell me about yourself?” -This began a press conference, which Lois Basson came two hours after her loud victory. For a 22-year-old Frenchwoman, who takes 361st place in the ranking, it was a debut at the main press center of the tournament.
“My life will not change, nothing will change. After the tournament, my rating will allow me to get into big competitions, but so far it is the only difference. There is a lot of everything around me, but I stay in my bubble. ”
Bason said she started playing tennis at eight years of age, which was training a lot, and her game naturally adapted to the coverage.
“If I was told two weeks ago that I would be here – I would not believe. Although I always believed in myself, it is still incredible. But I’m very happy.
From the very beginning of the match, I believed in my chances. Of course, it was moral to me when she took the first set. But as soon as I returned in the second, I began to believe again.
When I went out to warm up in the morning it was incredible. But at some point, I just told myself: it’s just a tennis court. ”
When asked how far it can go, Basson replied: “As far as possible, of course. And why not win … (smiles). ”
