00:38Her best run came in the Miami Open, a WTA 1000 event, and wrapped up the year by winning her
00:44first ever gold medal in the Southeast Asian Games.
00:47Yulo, meantime, hopes to pick Ayala's brains. He says the battle in sports is mental so he seeks guidance from
00:53fellow athletes.
00:55I think I like him before I leave him, but after that, he's super pleased to be with him.
01:02I'm very excited that he's going to be with you.
01:06I'm going to ask for advice for you to learn more about California and the Eideline.
01:12I'm really inspired you to be able to train and speak up the world.
