I explored many others along the way, but it was tennis I fell in love with. <\/span><b>I began playing day by day, and even now, with each passing day, I find myself more passionate, more immersed. I enjoy it more than ever.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My growth as a player\u2014on the court and beyond\u2014is unfolding gradually, shaped by experience and strengthened by mental focus. <\/span><b>I strive to give my all. It\u2019s not that I wasn\u2019t before, but now I\u2019m pushing further, testing my limits. I\u2019m challenging myself constantly, and that, I believe, is the essence of the growth I\u2019m seeking this year.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many ways, I still see myself at the beginning of the journey. I\u2019m evolving day by day, as I said. I\u2019m still young\u2014this is only my second full year and a half on the circuit\u2014and I\u2019m learning continuously. I feel like I\u2019ve improved tremendously. <\/span><b>Experience has given me a clearer sense of how to approach each tournament, and every match helps refine my game. Still, there\u2019s a great deal to build on.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Representing EA7 in the sports world is a true honor. To bring a fashion brand into athletic competition adds both value and visibility\u2014and, I must admit, a certain elegance on the court.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Competing in the sport\u2019s biggest tournaments inevitably brings pressure, but also a powerful desire to rise to the occasion.<\/b> <b>In those moments, I often find I can give everything\u2014express myself fully. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, there are times when the pressure takes over. But as I\u2019ve said, I love playing in front of an audience. The bigger the stage, the more freely I play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>And the greatest gift, as a player, is the crowd. I\u2019ve found that the more people there are in the stands, the more comfortable I feel.
