Coming into this one, I think everyone always says they’re feeling good because they’ve had a good training block. But you never know until you come to a tournament, and it’s always hard to get into it. I think I’m very happy to get through in three because I didn’t win a match for the first three events of last season, so to get that win today is good, and I want to continue my momentum from last season.
I think there’s a little less pressure on me overall. Last season, I had the Asian Games, and I was trying to get myself into a good position. But I know what I’m capable of this year, and I’m a little more mature. Although I’m 26 and still learning, I’ve put some good work in, and I believe in myself, and it’s coming together.
