The current world No. 40 said: “I think I’m just very self-critical. It’s hard to see. Of course, I’m very proud of being competitive on the court. I think I would rather that than it being completely one way.
“But yes, there are positives. Right now it’s so soon after the match. I think it’s better for me to kind of feel a bit of the pain right now and then process it better that way.
“I think it’s difficult to see that right now, having just come off. It’s hard. It’s hard to take a loss like that. At the same time, I’m playing Aryna, who is No. 1 in the world, a great champion. I have to be proud of my effort today.”
