Simona Halep won the French Open in 2018 and ahead of the 2022 edition she opened up about recent life on tour admitting to finding love for tennis once more.
Halep penned a letter to Eurosport about her feelins ahead of the event and you can read some of the lines below.
"I feel refreshed; I feel more confident; I feel healthy. Finally! I have no problems now, with no injuries. I feel so happy to be back on the court, and I am looking forward to playing each match because I really want to continue to improve.
Roland-Garros is my favourite tournament and I always feel great when I go there. It is going to be a little bit different because last year I didn’t play, so we will see. I need more time to get my confidence back, and more matches. So hopefully I can continue to find form before going there and I can just enjoy it because it is the best tournament for me.
I have always said that if I felt like I could not play at the highest level then I would stop playing tennis because it would mean that I did not really believe in myself. If you don’t truly believe, there is no point in continuing, but now, having met Patrick and the new team has brought me new confidence in myself. They really believe that I am still able to play good tennis, so the goal is to win tournaments and to be as strong as I can be. I will do everything I can to achieve that. I am ready and I am all in.
In terms of how many more years I think I have left in me, it is a day-to-day vision. I don’t want to only set one goal. The goal is just to improve myself all the time.
