Furthermore, Evert elaborated, "Coco faces the challenge of maintaining mental awareness and staying present in every single point. Unfortunately, at the age of 19, Coco has not yet mastered this aspect, while Iga has shown exceptional ability to do so."

"The second set witnessed a decrease in tension as Coco struggled with numerous forehand errors and a few mis-hits. While it may not have showcased the highest level of play, credit must be given to Iga for confidently stepping up against a formidable opponent and showcasing her A-game," remarked Evert.
