00:03Hi Iga, congratulations.
00:05Thank you.
00:05Last year you said that you didn't remember the last time you played freely, relaxed,
00:12and after this year's Miami Open, you said you felt a little lost on court,
00:17but now it feels different.
00:19Are you starting to rediscover the joy in competing?
00:24Sorry, it's an enjoy.
00:26Oh, um...
00:30Yeah, if you play well, if you feel the ball right, if you are doing the right things
00:35and it's all clicking, it's easy to enjoy.
00:40And yeah, I am enjoying.
00:43There are tournaments that you enjoy, there are tournaments where you feel you play terrible,
00:48or not even play, but you overall feel terrible.
00:50So you need to kind of accept that it can happen and kind of move on
00:57and work, so you have opportunity to play good on the next one, maybe, so for sure I feel good
01:04here.
01:07Hi Iga, how do you feel after a strong performance like this, like today?
01:11How much is important for your confidence, you know, for the rest of the season on clay?
01:15I am thinking about two long girls, so of course, thank you very much.
01:19Well, the goal was to play as many matches as possible, so I'm really happy that I just have opportunity
01:24to do that,
01:24because I felt like I didn't play a lot at all, you know, comparing to last seasons.
01:29So I'm happy that, you know, yeah, I can spend some time on the court and play really solid matches
01:35against the best girls,
01:37and for sure it's giving me confidence, because, you know, you can practice as much as possible,
01:43but if you don't, you know, test it out on the court and play matches and face pressure or something,
01:50you know, you're going to still feel a little bit rusty, you know, when it comes.
01:55So now I'm happy that I played a couple of matches and I'll play maybe, hopefully, two more here.
