Her secrets of success, distilled from her own words, illuminate her path. “Focus on the process, not the outcome,” she once told the BBC, a mantra that kept her grounded during her rise from World No. 150 in 2015 to the top tier. Mental toughness, honed with coach Wim Fissette, turned pressure into power—she credited him for her 2017 breakthroughs. Consistency was her cornerstone; daily routines of fitness and mindfulness, shared in WTA interviews, built her stamina. Above all, she embraced adaptability, shifting from Australia’s clay to Britain’s grass, a lesson in bending without breaking. Yet, it’s her sunny personality, a warm glow of optimism, that truly defines her, love to animals and people.
