The American tennis player Madison Keys said that ‘lots of therapy’ helped her secure her Australian Open title, after she beat the world No 1, Aryna Sabalenka, in the final on Saturday. ‘Actually getting help, talking to someone, not just about tennis but how I felt about myself,’ she added. ‘If I hadn’t done that, I don’t think I would be sitting here.’
At 29, Keys is the oldest first-time women’s Australian Open champion in the Open era. ‘I’m just really proud of myself,’ Keys told a reporter. ‘I didn’t always believe that I could get back to this point.’
