`It takes lots of courage` - Svitolina on the importance of mental health


`It takes lots of courage` - Svitolina on the importance of mental health


....."It takes lots of courage, first of all, to open up, and second, to find the right person because sometimes it`s not the matter of being a good mental coach," Svitolina said. "It`s a matter of finding the good relationship. It`s the same as finding the right husband, or a tennis coach, or the right friend. You can look for a long time or you can find someone really quick and you can be very lucky with that. So I tried a couple of them, a couple of people that I was suggested by my agent, by my friends, but unfortunately, it didn`t work for me." 

"The lady with whom I`m working right now, we found a good connection. She`s really not too picky on how I feel and somehow I open up really easy with her and we share a lot. We try to find the right way for me to make me feel good and just make me feel stronger mentally.".....
