Head Coach Bianca Turati

"We had another encouraging performance today. We showed once again that we are very competitive at the highest level. We won a singles match with Korina, who played very well and showed toughness when it mattered. We forced a third set in two singles matches and battled on the other courts during singles. We also had our chances in doubles but couldn't execute well in the clutch moments. We will keep working hard for the next matches. We are hungry to win and determined to achieve our goals."
