WTA World No.6 Petra Kvitova has hailed the faith that her team had in her after she reached the Australian Open final with a 7-6(2), 6-0 victory over Danielle Collins.
It is five years since the Czech last competed in a major showpiece, when she won Wimbledon in 2014, yet she has overcome much since then, including a serious hand surgery after she was injured during a knife attack in her apartment in Prague in December 2016.
Back in the big time, she thanked the loyalty of those close to her, who have shown unshakable belief that she could reach the very top again.
“I don’t think that many people believed that I could do that again, to stand on the court and play tennis to that kind of level,” she said.
