Badosa on mindset after Trevisan win at Australian Open: "I'm growing as a tennis player day by day"
WTA
Paula Badosa has continued her brilliant form into 2022 and after winning the Sydney Tennis Classic has brought it into the Australian Open.
Badosa saw off Martina Trevisan 6-0, 6-3 to make the third round in Melbourne for the first time and the improvement not only as a tennis player but as a person is what the Spaniard is gauging her game on.
"It was a tricky match against Martina," said Badosa. "We know each other since a long time. She's a fighter. I knew she was going to make me play every point, she was going to fight until the end. I'm pretty happy about the win today.
"I think I'm growing as a person, as a tennis player day by day. I'm working very hard. I'm believing in myself. It's much different. Last year I was No.70 in the world. Now I'm No.6. I'm improving a lot. I'm really happy and proud of how I am working."

- Where is it written that athletes, entertainers... People in general... are mandated to keep looking at -- or even using [anti]Social Media? Public & private figures consistently complain and reveal their concerns about negativity and violence thrown at them -- yet they insist on participating. Avoid it, don't use it, don't read it. It's okay to occasionally look up at the World instead beating your eyes & thumbs to death on The Inventions out there.mandoist11-10-2026
