Speaking about her spectacular season, Caroline Garcia admitted that she learned many lessons and grew through her experiences. She revealed that her mentality was to keep going in the right direction and believe that the results would follow. "I think this year (there were) so many lessons, so many experiences. Starts ok. I got some good wins here and there, but couldn’t manage to back them up with some other good wins. But my team behind me were really focused on which way we wanted to play, how we wanted to play, and it was not paying off all the time, but they told me if I kept going in that way, it will pay off one day or another, so that was really the mentality. I am not too sure we were thinking it was going to pay that much that early, but I definitely like it," Garcia during a post-match interview with Tennis Channel.
