Caroline Garcia enjoying tennis again after Australian Open stroll

The Hindu  

Caroline Garcia said on Tuesday that she was enjoying tennis again after a tough couple of years, where injuries caused her form to desert her. The French fourth seed took just 65 minutes to overwhelm Canadian qualifier Katherine Sebov 6-3, 6-0 and cement her status as a real contender for the first Grand Slam of the year. “We always say things can change very quickly,” Garcia said after setting up a second-round clash against another Canadian, Leylah Fernandez. “If you want to go all the way in a Slam, you have to beat some tough players,” said Garcia, who made her Melbourne Park debut a decade ago with her best run, to the last 16, in 2018.
