Jelena ostapenko into press conference. French open 2017

"I cannot believe I am champion at 20 years old. I love you guys. It's so amazing to be here,” the joyful Ostapenko told the crowd afterwards.
She reckoned she knew all the history about Gustavo Kuerten winning his very first tour title at Roland-Garros on 8 June, 1997, the very day she was born. Now, she too had taken her maiden senior title at the French Open too. Just perfect.
“I have no words, it is my dream. I'm so happy,” she said. “I knew Simona was a great player. But I tried to play aggressive and everything turned my way. I fought for every point. I'm glad it finished my way.”
