I really enjoy participating in all the tournaments and being in front of my home crowd this week. They encourage me all the time and that definitely makes me very happy. It seems that the situation is improving day by day.
It’s nice to be able to play here in Prague, “said the two-time Roland Garros 2021 champion.
Krejcikova: “Simona Halep? I saw all her matches”
“Simona Halep? I have seen all of her games and it has helped me improve the quality of my game this season.
Halep still inspires me. Now, unlike before, I want to play tennis and play with the public a lot more. I too would like to become an inspiration like Simona. (How do you have a good season?) I don’t know what the secret is.
I try to work hard every day and put the rest aside. When I have to train or play, I just focus on that. Off the court, however, I try to have fun.
I think it’s good to find a good balance between tennis and privacy. You can’t focus on just one of the two things. It’s true that now I’m in great shape, but I know that at some point the level could drop.
I hope to be well prepared, especially from a mental point of view, and to be able to accept the situation (when it happens). After winning in Paris, it’s like all my dreams have come true.
Now I just want to have fun and do what I love to do the most, which is play tennis, ”she revealed.
