"To be honest, I didn’t fully know what to expect before coming to the U.S. I just knew I wanted to keep playing tennis and try something different. What I found here was more than just good matches and practices, it was a completely new way of living.

You’re constantly surrounded by energy: people training, studying, competing, pushing themselves. That environment changes you, not instantly, but over time. You get more mature, more focused, and you start thinking bigger.

For anyone sitting at home wondering if it’s worth it: yes, it is. It’s not always easy, but it’s 100% worth it."
