"I felt like I was at the limit of my physical capabilities, especially today. I had problems with my leg after the match against Haddad Maia. In the semi-finals, I pushed myself to play. Then I succeeded. But today, after the start, after 2-3 games, I couldn't do it anymore. I tried, but it was absolutely impossible," Kalinina said in an interview with BTU.
