Jelena Ostapenko: In tennis everything can change very quickly
Latvian tennis player Jelena Ostapenko spoke about her victory in the second round of the tournament in Charleston.
“I understood that in tennis everything can change very quickly. I fought to the last point. Today I didn’t have the goal to punch as powerful as possible. On the contrary, I wanted to delay the draws. I felt that such a tactic could bring success. If I managed to make a good drawing, I started to act more aggressively. In any case, you need to be able to attack. Otherwise it will not be possible to achieve high results.
However, on the court, I try not to rush things. At first, I try to feel the rhythm, perform a couple of strokes on the line and only then go on the attack, ”the WTA press service quotes Ostapenko as saying.
