We all had, at some point, matches we should have won and we didn't and that's the game. That's just the way the sport is. Otherwise, if everything was written before, we don't need to play.

Yes, I have had difficult times on court and at certain tournaments but you need to forget about it and go forward because that's the way it works in our world.

There were many occasions in my career where I could have given up, where I asked myself whether I would ever make it.

Whether it's in the right way or sometimes the wrong way, you learn about life and its lessons.

It took me time to adjust and to realise it was not going to happen like it did in the juniors.
