The Canadian player took the first step in the third WTA 1000 series of the season. «I think he plays great tennis. Honestly, it’s really nice to see that because he hasn’t played much. Injuries, this and that. I recognize myself somehow. I mean, not on that scale, but yeah, I’m really glad he’s back at it and playing like that. If he continues to play like this, he can definitely get back into the top 10.“Bianca explained about Emma Raducanu.
Bianca confirms the idyll she has with the city of Miami. «It has a special place in my heart. I’ve been coming here since I was 12, whether it was for vacation or practice or yes, the Orange Bowl. I really like that tournament. Yeah, come back here, I think it’s a good feeling overall. Playing against Maria Sakkar in the next round is very difficult in my opinion. He plays very well. We’ve had two very tough games so I hope we can put on a show.»
Rhythm changes in their matches
«I like to change the pace when I can. I feel like I’ve been that way since I started playing tennis. It was because I got on the field, so I tried different things. It helped me a lot. Sometimes I can get myself hooked because I feel like I have so many pictures to take. I’m kind of distracted or maybe I hit the wrong shot. But I think it’s been very effective and I’m going to keep playing this way forever.«.
No pressure, but on purpose
«I feel like my pace has been pretty consistent throughout my matches. I don’t win all the time, I don’t win all the time, but I just want to feel good. I don’t want to put pressure on myself. When it comes, it comes. But I would like to win very, very soon, if possible, another Grand Slam, another 1000 event. I hope it’s here.«
