Elina Svitolina, the Ukrainian professional tennis player, recently won her match against American Sofia Kenin in the 2023 Wimbledon Championships. In the post-match conference, she was asked about her performance and how she must be feeling after the win.

Her candid response was something that every mother can definitely relate to.

After making her way to the fourth round at Wimbledon and defeating Sofia Kenin in a tough two-set match, Svitolina was obviously haggled by journalists in a post-match press conference. One of the questions that was thrown her way was about how she was enjoying her time sleeping through the night as she does not have to take care of her daughter right now who is pretty small as of now.

To which Elina’s raw and candid response was, “Yeah now it’s Gael’s turn to look after Skai.”. A Twitter page called The Tennis Letter posted the whole conversation on their official page. Along with that, they also wrote that moms also need a break once in a while. This is definitely true because while managing your professional career and role as a mother, it gets difficult to find the balance.

At such times, having a partner who acts supportive is crucial. And in Elina’s case, we are sure Gael plays an equally important role, as Elina’s comment reveals the same.
