Bianca Andreescu hit the front page of women's tennis last September when she made history by winning her first Grand Slam at the US Open after defeating Serena Williams in the final, depriving the American of equaling the 24 Grand Slam of Margaret Court .
A success that for the young Canadian tennis player of 20 years falls short in her dream of forging her own tennis legend. “I want to surpass Serena Williams and her titles. It could also surpass Chris Evert and Margaret Court. Who knows? I like to dream big. It gives me more motivation to go out on the court and continue doing what I do, “said the young Canadian tennis player, speaking to CNN.
Andreescu defends her great capacity for sacrifice and her ambition for wanting to be the best player on the circuit despite her youth. “I give 150% in everything I do and I always want to be the best. I have put a lot of effort and sacrifice into my tennis career, that's why I want to be the best. Exceeding these players would make me the best, but I don't know what God will bring me. “
The Canadian also appreciated what she expects to be the return to activity after the break due to the coronavirus. “I really didn't think tennis would come back so soon because it is an international sport but honestly it made me very happy to go back to the US Open and defend my title. I know that all of us involved will do their best to make us safe. If you look at other sports, I think it's time for tennis to come back. “However, he regretted that the tournament was held without an audience.”Playing in front of people gives more hype. I play better under pressure so I felt like the stands were pushing me. There will be people watching us at home, so it will be good to know to get psyched up. “
