바카라I had a break in the second set, but then something happened. I just lost it," the 30-year-old Romanian said in her post-match press conference. 바카라It was just a panic attack. It happened. I didn't know how to handle it because I don't have it often.바카라

Halep, the 2019 Wimbledon champion, had already amassed 20 wins this season and had beaten 74th-ranked Zheng in January. Halep said she likely put too much pressure on herself.

바카라It's something normal that everybody has. I will be better next time, for sure. I don't have these things so it was new for me," she said. Halep said she was assured by doctors that she's OK physically.

바카라After the match was pretty tough. But now, I'm good. I'm recovered, and I will learn from this episode.바카라
