The pressure that follows such a triumph sits comfortably on such young shoulders. After all, as she says, she delivers her best under pressure. Many high-profile players have raised concerns about staging the event so soon but Andreescu is confident the tournament will be safe behind closed doors. Fans played a huge part in her winning her maiden grand slam in 2019, with the majority of the crowd supporting Williams on the night."Playing in front of the crowd just brings the hype into everything. I would say I perform really good under pressure so I felt the crowd gave me a push," she said, adding that this year's tournament will feel very different.
However, ensuring families were able to travel with players throughout the entirety of the tournament was a major factor in players agreeing to the plans, according to WTA president Micky Lawler.
