In the same press conference, she highlighted how it’s not easy for her to finish a tournament one day and start a new one the next day. Not only that, she emphasized on the back that players like her who don’t receive a bye in Doha have to play from the first match itself, while she, on the other hand, has to play the final a day before in the evening.

She also stated, “I have a question, I don’t know to who, to WTA or the tournaments, like, are you guys trying to make players die, or to get injured often?” Along with that, she highlighted how we still don’t have this technology to snap our fingers and be in Doha in 5 seconds for the next event.
