Fresh off a spectacular performance to cap off the season, Estonian tennis player Anett Kontaveit held a press conference on November 22, during which she spoke to reporters about her season, when she became the first Estonian ever to be ranked in the world top-10.


Kontaveit ended the season winning 29 of her last 33 matches, including a 12-match winning streak, which saw her win a tournaments in Moscow, Russia and Romania.

 

She also won tournaments in Cleveland and Ostrava earlier in the season.


"I was able to do all that and enjoy these matches, which was the biggest win for me all season.

 

Coming in second in the season-ending tournament is a great result to finish the best year of my career.

 

I will first try to rest up for next year and will soon begin preparing for it," the Estonian added.


She said the start of the season in Australia was the toughest point of the season, as strict quarantine rules did not allow her to leave her hotel room for two weeks.

 

"There were nicer moments, reaching the final right after quarantine and making the final at a grass tournament, as well," Kontaveit said.


She also became the first Estonian to make it to the season-end showcase WTA Finals tournament and also became the first Estonian to be ranked in the world top-10.

 

She also represented Estonia at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, but was knocked out of the tournament in the opening round.


"I have been able to think about my next goals for a few days now.

 

I think my biggest dream is to win a Grand Slam tournament, but I think the most important thing is for my goals to be development-based.

 

I want to improve my game, improve my physical state and improve elements in tennis.

 

As long as this development process is ongoing and is positive, results will follow," Kontaveit noted.
