Simona Halep: She continued to fight, although she had almost no strength left
Romanian tennis player Simona Halep told about her defeat in the quarterfinal of the competition in Dubai.
“I even try to extract positive moments from defeat. Anyway, I did some great fights in Dubai. I play at a high level, I feel physically good. However, it’s not easy every day. I felt tired, and after the second game I started cramps. Achilles also began to hurt, and this prevented me from serving normally. In the last meeting I had a pain in my left leg. I’m not making excuses, it’s just that all these facts show that I’m tired. These were three very cool, albeit difficult weeks.
Nevertheless, I am confident in my abilities on the eve of the following tournaments. Bencic acted in an aggressive manner. At the first opportunity I tried to attack. In addition, she played great on the pitch. In general, Belinda can do everything on the court. Of course, I did not stop the fight, although I realized that I probably would not have enough strength to win. Now comes only the second month of the year. I am in second place in the rankings and enjoy the moment. I will try to rise above, “the WTA press service quotes Halep as saying.
