‘Couldn’t handle the pressure’: Kenin looks in the mirror after exit – Australian Open
Ousted by Kaia Kanepi on Thursday, the AO 2020 champion candidly admitted the expectations of living up to the biggest moment of her career weighed heavily on her…
I was obviously way too nervous, said the 22-year-old. I felt like I obviously wasn’t there. My head wasn’t there.
I’m not going to take any credit away from her. She played really well. She came up with some good shots. She obviously had a good plan against me.
I had chances. I just couldn’t take it. I obviously know why because, like, the nerves big-time got to me.
I just couldn’t execute my shots.
