Jaqueline Cristian, praise for Simona Halep

Jaqueline Cristian On Thursday, the performance of qualifying in the 3rd Masters of 1000 points in Rome was achieved, after passing with 2-0 Kazakh Iulia Potițeva.

Unfortunately, Cristian has great evolution fluctuations, which prevent her from exploding once and advance to the top 50 for the moment and even above. Win on players ranked superior, so that they can then lose to others positioned.

She is considered to be the most valuable Romanian player from Simona Halep, the hope of keeping the white sport in Romania on an acceptable step, while Anca Todoni represents the bet for tomorrow. After the victory in Rome in front of a better ranked sportsman, Cristian became the subject of an interesting article on the site punTodebreak.com.

There, he also expressed a lot of opinions on the state of tennis in our country, but especially the way Simona Halep was forced to get out of the scene.

« We do not have much support in Romania, it is sad and at the same time impossible to explain. We are a small country, but that has always given big champions. However, they have never received strong and positive support. It is as if people are waiting to fall, to remind you that you were not good enough.

If you are a decent athlete, when you start to grow and teach more, people will tell you that it is not necessary, that what you have enough. This negativity in the whole system means that athletes are not sufficiently supported, preventing many of them from taking the next step. Nor does our federation have much power, which is sad. This negativity can be a two -edged sword and can push you to break away from everything.

It was not fair what happened to Simona Halep, a great champion that she did not deserve such an end. It was an idol for many people, the Grand Slam champion, the world number 1. Ever since the doping scandal broke out, I didn’t like the way things were managed, all the mistakes that were made. I do not understand how they kept it away from the circuit for almost two years. At least he managed to prove his innocence, rehabilitate his name and even enjoy the final matches. I perfectly understand her decision to retire. At 33, he had already practically realized everything and can be very pleased with his career. I was present in Cluj-Napoca, at its withdrawal, it was a very emotional event. At that moment, I understood that I had to free myself from everything that had happened before and start living a new life« .
