Impossible to explain what happened this Friday in Shenzen between Italy and Ukraine. They were facing off in the semifinals of the Billie Jean King Cup, with Ukraine having won the first match and being two games away from winning the second point. And what happened? Jasmine Paolini unleashed her skills and delivered a memorable performance, turning around a scoreline that seemed impossible to tackle. Not even she knew how she managed to lead Italy to the final for the third consecutive year.
“Honestly, I don't know how I turned the match around, but I did it, I stayed there on every point. Maybe I got a bit lucky, but it's tennis, sometimes it happens, I found the solution to beat her, it's always tough battles against her. I have to thank everyone on the bench for supporting me throughout the match, so I'm very happy to have achieved that victory. It's been amazing, it's a pleasure to play in front of this crowd, and I hope they come to cheer us on in the same way this Sunday,” analyzed Jasmine.
