Bencic Relaxed Since Motherhood: "Tennis Is No Longer My Whole Life"

Belinda Bencic continues to impress everyone since her return from pregnancy.

She secured a win this Wednesday against Coco Gauff, avenging her loss at the Australian Open two months ago.

In a press conference, she admitted that being a mom has allowed her to be more relaxed and that tennis now holds a different place in her life.

"I always put a lot of pressure on myself and try to do things right.

But my priorities have changed, and so has the role of tennis in my life.

Of course, it still means a lot, but it’s no longer my entire life.

However, there’s no Bencic 2.0. If we counted the number of times I’ve come back, there should be a Bencic 7.0.

I still feel like the same person, and I don’t want to constantly compare myself to see if I was better or not."

Bencic will face Madison Keys for a spot in the Indian Wells semifinals.
