Press Conference

C. BUREL/J. Pegula

6-4, 6-2

THE MODERATOR: Clara, what a match today. What do you attribute your success to?

CLARA BUREL: I think I played a very solid performance today. I was really focus. Yeah, I didn't let her come into this match. Yeah, very solid, and I'm really happy about this match today.

THE MODERATOR: Questions, please.

Q. Is this the biggest and best win of your career?

CLARA BUREL: Yeah, for sure. I didn't play much top 10, so it's definitely my best win of my career.

Q. Can you talk about the all-French third round coming up?

CLARA BUREL: Yeah, that's really nice to see women and the boys playing really well. I just saw that we are three in the third one. It didn't happen since a few years. So yeah, it's really nice to see everyone playing well.

Q. You were so calm out there on court today. Did you feel nervous going into that match?

CLARA BUREL: Yeah, I would say the last game I was a little bit nervous, but I just tried to stay focus. I knew that I was 5-2 up, so I didn't need to panic and just stay focus.
