Maybe emotions, fatigue, I may have fallen badly. It is indeed a beast accident. That’s all we can say.
Bianca Andreescu
Andreescu expressed surprise at her ability to complete the match given the condition of her ankle. She hypothesized that adrenaline and being warmed up likely masked the pain. She also suggested that the motivation to win the final two points spurred her on to finish the contest.
Looking Ahead
Andreescu is adopting a day-by-day approach to her recovery and future scheduling. She stated that it is indeed too early to make decisions about her upcoming tournaments due to the nature of her injury, which she described as “a bit torn apart” and requiring time to heal.
The cincinnati tournament is scheduled to commence in nine days, with the United States internationals following in 26 days.
When questioned indirectly about the possibility of retirement, the 25-year-old athlete admitted that “dark ideas” sometimes cross her mind during challenging times.
However, her primary focus is on managing the situation one day at a time. She emphasized that she has no intention of questioning her future in the sport, which she feels has “given him so much.”
“I don’t want to talk about retreat, even if it comes to mind, but I still have goals. I know what I have left to do. I just have to keep doing my best. I know we didn’t hurt anything. The universe continues to test me, but I know it will make me stronger.”
