As you're prepping for the US Open now, very, very exciting stuff.
How are you feeling as you're going into it?
Well, right now I'm in Cincinnati, and I'm playing, the last tournament before I go to US- to go to New York.
Um- I won my match last night, so I'm feeling so far good.
And I had a good run in Toronto, which was a couple days ago.
So, I'm feeling good right now on court and hoping to continue to do well here in Cincy and have good momentum going into US Open.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like you just said, congratulations on your win, and you've- Thank you been doing Yeah, of course, and you've been doing amazing in, Cincinnati and your Canadian Open.
How much do you feel like these tournaments help to prepare you for the US Open as it kind of closes out the summer?

But then when you lose, I'm like, "You know what?

But I feel like regardless of what happens here in Cincy, I'm definitely happy with how I did in Toronto.
So, now it's just about finding, fine-tuning the details that I feel like I need to get out before New York.
