Azarenka US Open 2020

Victoria Azarenka is playing in a very good form, and she confirmed that also at the 2020 Ostrava Open when she reached the final.

However, in the final, she lost to Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 2-6 in only 68 minutes. Azarenka was showing very good performances throughout the week and so her final loss was a surprise. After the match, she admitted that she was not feeling well during the match.

"I started to feel bad yesterday," Azarenka said after the match. "I had a really bad migraine and sometimes this happens. That was pretty significant. I obviously felt better this morning, but the effect of playing under lights that cause sensitivity, and still recovering from yesterday, it triggered more of the same reaction. It was very unfortunate for me today, but it is what it is."

"I wanted to see if there was anything I could do to make myself feel better. I took it as something like a challenge for myself, and what I could do to perhaps find a solution for the next time. I'm proud I was able to at least go through with that."
