‘There’s Always Something Wrong’- Sloane Stephens Admits Aging Niggles and How She Overcame Them With Love for Tennis

Former US Open Champion Sloane Stephens has made her way through to the second round of the Brisbane International Tournament and has had a great start to the year. She played against Katerina Siniakova of the Czech Republic and earned a hard-fought victory over her. Winning the match may or may not have been easy for her but preparing for it and putting her body up for it was not easy.

She recently talked about how she had to focus a lot on her body because it had changed a lot due to her increasing age and old injuries. Further, she also explained how she worked on those things and came back better.

In a recent interview, Sloane Stephens mentioned how she always listens to her body and if there is something that feels is off, she works on it and prioritizes it. During another interview, she was asked about what she meant when she said, ‘listening to her body’.

To which she responded, “There’s always something wrong with me, but I’m getting older. I just put off some health things, and I was able to go home and focus on it and focus on myself and try to get my body in the best shape possible and try to get my mental in the best place possible to be able to come out and play a full season and try to stay healthy. I just tried to put everything in place so that I could make that happen for myself this season and see where that gets me.”
