Paula Badosa reflected on her emotionally and physically taxing victory in the previous round of the US Open, sharing how the tense tiebreaker nearly gave her a heart attack but was fueled by the crowd’s support.
She also discussed her injury experience, mentioning the change in perspective it brought and the low point during her comeback when she questioned whether to continue playing due to a back injury.
