LONDON | Bianca Andreescu tried to hide her disappointment with her existence from the journalists very close to victory against sixth favorite Tunisian Ons Jabeur at Wimbledon on Saturday. “I’m disappointed, but I don’t want to say anything that could get me in trouble!” started the Canadian.
Especially since the Netflix cameras, which have been following her since the tournament began for a possible appearance in the next season of the Breaking Ball series, were present in the small interview room.
Although still happy with the game that offered her at the beginning of the fortnight, she also smiled at the idea of having realized a dream: to play on the center of the All England Club, considered the best and more legendary tennis court in the world.
Chilling when putting foot in
A chance she hadn’t had in her early appearances, where her best result was a second-round appearance last year.
“It was wonderful. I had chills when I stepped onto the field,” the 50th told World. I thought I was a lot more nervous, but I was feeling really good.
“I’ve fantasized about playing this field since I was very little,” added the 23-year-old Ontario native. Having the opportunity to do that was great.”
