From Monica
“Mentally, physically it just all comes together.Before this year, I had a really tough loss to Kerber in Brisbane and wasn’t able to close that one out. But obviously losing that match was probably one of the best lessons for me because I ended up learning from it and closed off some pretty big matches.” said Monica.

Monica will play th next round against Soler-Espinosa that has defeated MIsaki Doi from Japan 1-6 6-4 6-1.
