"I just gotta keep grinding but gotta tell myself I can’t play very good every single day" - Andreescu on her comeback

There are not many players that have the talent of Bianca Andreescu but talent is not enough to make a comeback go smoothly.

Andreescu made a name for herself in 2019 when her campaign included a couple of notable wins with none more than the US Open triumph over Serena Williams. Since then it's been a tough time for the Canadian as she struggled with multiple injuries and a mental health break.

She's back to playing tennis but it's not going as smoothly as she would have hoped:

"I definitely don’t think I’m there yet. I just gotta keep grinding but I also gotta tell myself I can’t play very good every single day. It’s just not what it is sadly, I wish I could do that. I really, really want this especially after so much time off, taking time for myself and all those rough moments."

Despite the bumps, Andreescu is not getting down on herself as she's in a great place mentally which is important in order to endure the brutal tennis season:

"I really feel like I’m in a great place right now and even me just talking right now — last year for instance, I would be more negative but I just feel so great. Also, I’m home, the crowd was for me, win or lose, I feel that they’ve always supported me so that means a lot."
