US Open 2021: Indian ace Sania Mirza writes heartfelt note, says “We aren’t done yet” after exit: Ace Indian tennis star Sania Mirza wrote a long heartfelt note on Saturday after crashing out of the ongoing US Open.
Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza’s US Open 2021 campaign ended early after she and her mixed doubles partner Rajeev Ram lost in the opening round match at the Flushing Meadows in New York on Friday.
The Indo-American duo lost to Australia’s Max Purcell and Ukraine’s Dayana Yastremska by 6-3, 3-6, 10-7. Sania Mirza also had lost in the first round of the women’s doubles on Thursday. “An athletes life is filled with heartbreak and triumph day after day, week after week .. it’s filled tears and laughter..with pain and hardwork ..with injuries and finding the strength to get back from them,” wrote Sania Mirza on her Instagram post.
“It’s filled with the pressure to perform at the highest and to your best ability everytime you step on the court ..it’s filled with expectations from yourself and from the world .. it’s filled with determination , repetition and resilience..it’s filled with love from millions and some hate too it’s filled with doubt and anger sometimes when you don’t win ..with questions that sometimes have no answers.”
