Donna Vekic speaks to the press after claiming the HSBC Championships
title at Queen's Club, beating home favourite Emma Raducanu 6-0, 7-6(6)
in the final.
The Croatian dominated the opening set 6-0, then held her nerve as
Raducanu fought back and saved three championship points in the
second set, before Vekic closed it out in a tiebreaker. It's her
first WTA Tour title since 2023, and a huge result after coming
through the draw as a lucky loser.
In this interview, Donna talks about:
— Winning her first title since 2023
— The dominant start and how Raducanu fought back
— Closing it out in the tiebreaker under pressure
— Her unlikely run from lucky loser to champion
