Torrie : “I’m really happy. I’ve had a couple of bad results recently so I wanted to come into this tournament feeling relaxed and confident and I feel like I did that today. I know I’ve not played Sana before, but I thought I did really well. I kept my game plan and I’m glad to be through.

“Varying the height and using the length a lot and making sure I get in front of her and not going short too early and wait for to make mistakes and rally it out. I think I did it really well.

“Those last two games, I really dug deep, and I think I won today mentally. It’s my first time at the World Champs, so I’m really happy to be in the second round, and I’m looking forward to my second-round match.”
