‘Felt Like I Was Being Ground Down’- Borna Coric Reflects on His Struggling Phase Ahead of Indian Wells 2022 Return

The Croatian tennis player Borna Coric has been a promising youngster since he first arrived. In the juniors, he saw a lot of success, including the US Open win. He was even ranked as the best player in the world during the juniors.
However, in recent times, Coric has been troubled with many issues. He has been on the sidelines for a considerable amount of time as he was struggling with a shoulder injury.

Borna Coric feels refreshed and recharged 

Recently, Borna spoke on a number of issues. He has been feeling the pressure to perform at the same levels as before, if not more. However, that feeling lasted for a substantial time, and at this point, he does not feel the pressure but, in fact, feels rejuvenated. 

Speaking on this subject, the Croat stated, “For the last seven or eight years, it felt like I was being ground down, with all the pressure and the expectations. So, in a way, what happened was good because I had a chance to reset, renew my passion, and realize how much I enjoy my life as a tennis player.”
