Around the match

  • “Towards the end I wasn't physically feeling my best. I did load so much post-Wimbledon, and the goal is to peak at US Open, so I know maybe this first week I'm not going to be feeling like a hundred percent.”

  • “I understand the reasoning behind it. I do think that this kind of conversation has created a lot of animosity towards the trans community, which I'm not really a big fan of, but I also understand the need to protect fairness in sport.”
