Jankovic: I really enjoy playing in China

On July 26th, the Jiangxi Open tennis tournament was in full swing, with famous tennis players such as Yankovic and Peng Shuai successfully advancing to the second round. Zhang Shuai and Christina Priskova will also make their appearances today. As the former world number one, Jankovic is one of the most popular players at Jiangwang this year. Yesterday, she talked to reporters at a post match press conference about her feelings about this year's competition and some thoughts beyond the competition.

In yesterday's game, Yankovic defeated Chinese young player Kang Jiaqi with a score of 6-2/7-5. Speaking of this Chinese young general, Yankovic stated that his opponent is very young and powerful. In addition, the weather in Nanchang is very hot, and she sweats a lot and feels dizzy. However, she enjoys the competition in Nanchang very much and feels the love and support of many fans. She is willing to come to China frequently for competitions.

As a 32 year old tennis veteran, Jankovic will have to face leaving the field sooner or later. At yesterday's press conference, she admitted that after retiring, she didn't really want to work as a coach to cultivate new talents. She hoped to find a passionate and hobby job as a new start, instead of being busy participating in tournaments around the world like she had been as a professional tennis player for many years before, and rarely spending time with family and friends. However, currently, she says she wants to go on more vacations and rest to prepare well for winning more games in the future. In recent days, I have often been troubled by injuries, especially my waist and back, and sometimes it is difficult to maintain my best psychological state. (Correspondent: Dong Fuchao).
