American Sloane Stephens spoke about working with coach Sven Groeneveld and support of relatives.
“Over the past couple of weeks, my life has been streamlined. Thoughts have become clearer, I see the situation on the court better, I play better. This is exactly what I needed. I performed well in Madrid and continue to add here.
When you and your relatives are all right, it affects your game. It is hard to stay away from home all the time, so the support of loved ones and a good team are very important. Everyone experiences it differently. It’s enough for me to know that grandparents are fine, “the US Open press service quotes Stephens as saying.
