“First title of the year and a big joy after my last knee injury. Reaching this level of play in such a short time and having so much fun on court is just magical. A big thank you to everyone who helped me come back so fast. Let’s enjoy this for a moment and then start again this weekend with a new tournament. Thanks for your support, you’re the best,” said Seurin after the win.
