For Giorgi, this has been a culmination of many years of work and sacrifice. It is also something she showed earlier she could do but it never quite worked out. After a strong showing in Tokyo, it finally clicked in Montreal. On the whole journey she said:

“I think this comes with all the work I been doing with my father. Of course, he's my coach. So I think all the work we've been putting together through all these years. I think one day I was sure and he was sure that can come in many period because I was playing very good actually. I was playing very high level already few months ago.”
