After Memorable Win at Cincinnati, 30-Year-Old American Tennis Beauty Gives a Shout-Out to Mother as She Sends Grateful Message – ‘It Takes a Village..’

Sloane Stephens hasn’t had the best of time on the WTA tour this season. Since her grand slam win in 2017, she has not been playing at the same level as everyone expected her to. But the American player is slowly crawling her way back. Her recent victory in the Cincinnati Masters showed her improvement. After her big victory, Stephens did not forget to show her gratefulness to her team and her parents,especially her mother.

This is not the only time Stephens has thanked her mother for her support. In an interview last year, Stephens talked about the support her mother shows for her mental health. Since her mother is a psychologist, it has had a heavy impact on how she has shaped her mindset.

Playing in the Cincinnati Masters, she has found new momentum in her career. Facing the defending champion is no easy task, but Stephens managed to triumph over her. She faced Caroline Garcia in round two and won the match in three sets. Happy with her performance, Stephens became ready to praise her mother and her team for their efforts in helping her resurgence.

In the post-match conference, she said, “It takes a village. Shout out to mom. You guys, you see her. She’s also wearing her favorite UFC sweatshirt so she’s representing double sports tonight. But no, it definitely takes a village. I mean, I’ve been so blessed over my career to play in front of you guys, and I have so much support from my family and my team.”

She ended her speech with a final message of appreciation. “You know, I’m just really happy to have them here and support me. With them, with you guys, there’s nothing better.”
