The chance to work with a player like Simona is too great to say no. I knew it was a great opportunity to work with a player like Simona. I am very motivated to work with her and I will give my best. “ , said Fissette, who is 33.
He says he was impressed with Simona’s movement on the court: “Sometimes she flies around the court, which I really liked. And also her intelligence on the court. For me, she is one of the smartest players on the circuit and he almost always makes the best decisions.”
Only at the beginning of the collaboration between him and Halep, the Belgian coach believes that the Romanian can win a Grand Slam tournament at some point in her career and says that at the moment her style of play is unique in the circuit: “I don’t see another player who evolve like Simona. He always plays on intuition, he feels the game, he is not the type who makes a plan before entering the field. He feels what is happening at the net and makes the right decisions.”
Simona Halep plays this afternoon in Paris, in the first round, against the French Kristina Mladenovic. The match will be live on Digi Sport 2 at approximately 17:30.
