It’s definitely cool to beat a top-10 opponent. It proves that I can fight on equal terms with such opponents and beat them.
Roland Garros is very important for me, because now the clay is my favorite surface. I’ve been working on improving all the components of my game for a long time. I’m glad that it started to bring results.
Every player has his own way. Some people are able to make it to the big win at 17. I’m 23 now, so it took me a little longer to achieve success. It was the constant struggle to make it to the top that made me stronger.
