Outside of tennis, I like to draw and play mobile games, and sometimes I play football for fun.
Who would you like to dedicate this interview to?
I would like to dedicate this interview to the Israel Tennis Association and say that, yes, I am not No. 1 yet, but I have a dream, and I will do everything to succeed. No matter what. And to people who have a dream: if you want to, you will.
