Transcript

Today, I'm training at Evert. It is my first time here and I am just seeing how things are. I anticipate that, I may be nervous as it is the first time they are seeing me play. However, I don't have anything to prove to anyone. Regardless of how I play, I will carry myself in a confident, respectful way. The coaches don't just want to see my level, they will also want to see how I train. I will be very diligent with my habits on court and I will not be lazy in any way. I am grateful to Evert and to you for giving me this opportunity today, and I will have a presence that shows that. I will smile and I will be excited to learn.
