In a very hot day Svetlana Kuznetsova has a really good victory against Caroline Wozniacki. The match was played in a hot boiling environment (40 degrees) and it last more than 3 hours.
The Russian proved to be the strongest player when after a 10 minutes break conceded for the heat at the beginning of the third set she came back with an incredible focus and determination to win the decider 6-2.
Apparently the Russian has found again her love for tennis to comment. “I love to do this job, but sometimes it’s too much,” Kuznetsova said. Talking about a burn out she had in 2008 “I couldn’t do this any longer,”
“One month, two months, three months, I was like, I think I need to work,” she said. “I need to have a goal. Because like this, I had no goal. I was just relaxing. It was good for me. But I think the most important thing in the life is to have a goal. On the court, off the court, whatever, so your life [is] going somewhere If you stop having goals, your life just freezes in the same position.
“I will have time to stay at home after my career. … My time is not to stop yet.” she added.
