I feel really proud of her, because I know her own challenges, things you don\u2019t see on the screen, I know what she deals with. [But] for myself I feel extremely bad, that it\u2019s almost like I\u2019m not good enough, I have to do better. I see what\u2019s going on close to me and basically we work [as] hard [as each other] and I feel like I\u2019m not good enough, doing well enough, like how I\u2019m supposed to do.&#8221;\n <\/p>\n<p>Though it was &#8220;strange&#8221; to watch her sister&#8217;s greatest moment on television, Erika, 21, says she only feels a great sense of pride for the growth she has seen in her younger sibling.<br \/>\n <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Honestly, I know since a very young age she was always struggling with the moments when something was not going her way, to stay in the game, to stay calm, to not let everything down. I remember one of the matches about which I was most proud was against [Marina] Bassols Ribera [in the Roland Garros second round]. I wouldn\u2019t say it was the best match of hers, tennis-wise, but I was just proud that she managed it without feeling her best in the shots that she relies on. She kept going even with a game that she doesn\u2019t like. She managed to win.&#8221;<br \/>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;I will not lie, it is such a big pressure because you don\u2019t feel the same way as&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":655308,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[101,118,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-655307","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-sports","tag-tennis","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/655307","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=655307"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/655307\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/655308"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=655307"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=655307"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=655307"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
