Another factor is the education and culture in which you grow up. I didn't grow up in the culture of victory, where you are expected to be or have to be, the best. It was not at all like that in my family. Tennis was really a hobby. If it led to something, great. If not, there were other things in life. I think that was something I was missing at some points in my career, because when I see Hingis or the Williamses, you see how they were educated for this: to win, to be the best, a bit the American mentality. Number one. Number one. Number one. I didn't have this.

I definitely wanted this win today and I don't want anybody to talk about my nerves anymore.

Whether it's in the right way or sometimes the wrong way, you learn about life and its lessons.

Right now I have more confidence in myself. I grew up.

You have to adjust to where you are but the French are all together - the guys and the women. It's good.

The day I stop feeling the pressure and I'm just enjoying myself and taking it easy is when I'm 35, asking for a wild card and playing mixed doubles with Arnaud Clement.

It took me time to adjust and to realise it was not going to happen like it did in the juniors.
