"Coming back like this is an incredible feeling. I waited a long time to assess my game because, without competition, you don’t really know where you stand. I needed a match. It’s the best training you can have.
I felt good, the day was very positive. Maybe I could have moved a bit better, but it wasn’t too bad. I played against a quality opponent and felt very good, so I’m happy."
