“I have no idea how I managed to win. I remember, after one point, I wanted to break the racket, and here I am in front of you, the winner. This is tennis.

I told myself that I had to win at least one game in the deciding game because I lost a lot in a row (at least ten).

Then, after winning the first game, I had a good run and managed to keep my concentration at a good level.

I’m like crazy (hard no) and I never give up. Despite the fact that Iryna started playing great tennis, I did not lose faith in my chances. I’m tough,” she said Jessica Pegula at the end of the game, an interview with Iryna Begu.
