“The past few years have been interesting, to say the least. But I find that it’s the most challenging times in life that may be the most fun,” she added in the carousel post. “These few months away from the sport have really given me a new love and appreciation for the game I’ve dedicated my life to. I realize that life is short and I don’t take any moments for granted.”

“Every day is a new blessing and adventure. I know that I have so much to look forward to in the future. One thing I’m looking forward to is for my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone, ‘That’s my mom.’ Haha. 2023 will be a year that’ll be full of lessons for me. And I hope I’ll see you guys at the start of the next one because I’ll be at the Australian Open 2024. Love you all infinitely.”

She also wrote a side note saying, “I don’t think there’s a perfectly correct patch to take in life. But I always felt that if you move forward with good intentions, you’ll find your way eventually.”
