\"I felt really solid today. It was a really efficient game. I\u2019m happy that I kept my focus because sometimes you think in a way it seems a little bit easy and it might cause problems later on because your focus might be gone, but I\u2019m happy that I kept it and I was solid,\" Swiatek said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
