At the time when I was 17 it was a bad experience – When Caroline Garcia revealed the impact of Andy Murray s tweet

Garcia was 17 years old when Andy Murray predicted her rise to World No. 1 Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray noticed Caroline Garcia when she was brought in as a wildcard at the 2011 French Open. The Frenchwoman was aged 17 at the time, and in an interview from 2021, she referred to the attention as a “bad experience”. Garcia noted that she wasn’t ready at the time and the weight of people’s expectations had an impact on her performance. She, however, also acknowledged people’s belief in her. "At the time, when I was 17, it was a bad experience. Mentally I wasn’t ready. I played an unbelievable match, but I wasn’t able to be consistent at that level. I felt that everybody from the outside was expecting me to play at that level every match, so they couldn’t understand why I was losing to players ranked about No 150 in the world," she , per TennisHead. "I had a lot of pressure and I couldn’t deal with it because I wasn’t ready. But you can’t regret that kind of experience. It’s great that people talk about you in this way. They say you have potential, that you can accomplish things. And it’s probably better that people think like that rather than the other way!" she added.
