Leylah Fernandez shied away from celebrating her 6-0 6-0 thrashing of Martina Trevisan praising her team for the overall performance.

Canada's win over Italy at the Billie Jean King Cup was a decisive one. In the opening match, Andreescu defeated Cocciaretto after falling behind in both sets by a break. She admitted after the match that she likes playing when behind but it is not something Fernandez would agree with.

In both sets against Trevisan, she jumped out to an early lead and simply kept building on it. She didn't really feel comfortable talking about the final result, a double bagel 6-0 6-0 victory.

“I think today was just a great day overall for everyone,” said Fernandez highlighting the team's performance instead of her own.

She praised Andreescu and snuck in a comment about her own performance:

“Bianca played a great match. I was just so happy that I was able to follow it up with a great performance. Just the support I was receiving in the crowd, the support I was receiving by the bench behind me was incredible. It definitely helped.”
