“Of course Elina is a top seed, and she’s the top seed for a reason. She has been Top 10 for so long because she has a great game and she’s an amazing player. But I really felt good out there today.
It’s going to be a very different match, but I beat her once. I know her game, and she knows my game. It’s going to be a very tough battle for both,” said Maria.
