Bencic's Record

Bencic was glad about the outcome of the match. She commented:

“All the credit to Storm, she played amazing. I knew she was going to be an uncomfortable opponent (being) a lefty. I had a hard time getting used to her, how she plays because I’ve never played her before and she’s still kind of unknown.

So I’m sure we’re going to hear a lot (about her in the future), and it was a great tournament for her.”
