The Pressure Is a Privilege

American former World No.1 tennis player Billie Jean King once said: “The pressure is a privilege”. This quote is now engraved on the plaque at US Open central court. It inspires so many tennis players as they fight to win.

This year, US Open men’s champion Dominc Thiem was under huge pressure after he lost first 2 sets. But he came back from 2-set lost and finally won the championship. This is the first time in US Open’s 75 years history that man won the title after lost the first 2 sets.

Woman’s champion Osaka also comeback from first set lost and won the title.  She also made US Open history that woman won the title after lost first set.

This is the sport spirit —- never give up, fight under pressure, and fight until you win!
