– Congratulations, Daria! You’ve just reached your first WTA semi-final, it’s your fifth win in a row this week, an uphill battle. How are you feeling now?
– Well, I’m very tired, but it was a really fantastic match. I want to thank Yuan Yue, she is an incredible player and I am very happy and very proud because this is my first semi-final here in Cluj-Napoca. This is one of my favorite tournaments.
– She was leading and serving for the match at 5:4 in the third set, but you won the last three games. What were you thinking at those moments? What do you think brought you victory in the end?
– I tried to play draw after draw, and she made two double faults on her serve. It helped me a little, but I believed in myself, I’m happy to win and I just played step by step.
– Tomorrow evening you will meet local favorite Sorana Kirstei. What are your thoughts on this match?
– I think it will be an amazing match because I know it’s her last season and I’m proud to play against Sorana and of course I’m going to enjoy this match. And those fans in the stands – thank you very much!
– Thanks to you too, Daryna, we will let you recover, it was a long day, see you tomorrow in the semi-finals.
– Thank you very much. Glory to Ukraine!
