Cristian Tudor Popescu: “Instead of Simona Halep I would put some wax plugs to not hear anything”
The journalist believes that the great plus of perseverance is the maturity he has reached and the ability to adapt to the style of each opponent. In addition, CTP also offered advice to Simona on negative comments that could appear after the tour in Rome and before the Grand Slam in France.
“I’m superstitious. I’m just into tennis, I’m not off the game. I don’t like to talk before the tournament. Sure, expectations are rising now. After he won in Rome, some speeches start, perhaps as dangerous as aggression and the grunts of the haters in the network, speeches that say ‘Sir, Simona is the favorite of the tournament, especially since X or Y are not coming’.
I would put some wax plugs so I wouldn’t hear anything. I don’t think Simona hears that, even without corks, and I think the keyword about this tournament is ‘maturity’. This is the key word. Simona has now reached a degree of psychological consistency that she never had.
She rose in her career as a great player, reached this psychic stage in which she does not lose her temper, she adapts to what comes to her from beyond the net. I saw her in different situations on tour. It was Paolini, then everything different in Yastremska. Then again, a bomber, perhaps one of the most powerful in the world, Muguruza. But, each time, Simona was calm, a remarkable lucidity and knew how to match her game with her opponent. I think this is Simona’s greatest asset and she will also have it for the Roland Garros tournament. “said Cristian Tudor Popescu, during Digi Sport’s Ace of Tennis show.
