Simona brings the Wimbledon trophy home!

Woow!! How much joy this tennis match brought to my heart…and even now, some time after, I still smile like a fool here and there remembering bits of that day, the 13th July 2019.

After an amazing 2018, with a great peak in June when Simona Halep won the Roland Garros title for the first time nobody was expecting still something so wonderful  to come also this year. More than that, the statistics of her tennis matches with Serena Williams was not in her advantage. And still, the magic still came for her and for all of us who support her along the year. 

I was hoping actually for this result though I had a few fears…In a perfect shape, our player needed almost one hour to finish the match and win the Wimbledon trophy, with the score 6-2, 6-2.  It was difficult for Serena Williams keep up with our Romanian player’s amazing rhythm. 

After an extraordinary 2018 when she got her first big title, winning the Roland Garros title in June, 2019 has brought Simona, after many hours of training and work, the 2nd big title, at Wimbledon, in the princely shade of the Duchess of Cambridge’s clapping.

Thank you again Simona for this joy, for this beautiful match and for the first Wimbledon trophy ever won by a Romanian player !

Simona Halep conquers Roland Garros!

It has finally happened! A Romanian player has won the Roland Garros tennis tournament and….it had to be Simona, of course! She deserves these magic moments, she has worked a lot for this and we, Romanians, are also celebrating this amazing victory with her, today and this whole year while she has this title.

After defeating A. Kerber and G Muguruza in the previous matches, showing a great condition, Simona has met today a new entry in the top ladies of the world tennis – Sloane Stephens. Never underestimating her opponents, she prepared and had a lot of work to manage finally to get and enjoy the most beautiful victory of her life, the dream she has had for 12 years. The moment was magical and all the Romanians in Paris and everywhere prayed for her to win and supported her all along the match.

After 40 years, as in 1978 another Romanian player Virginia Ruzici won the same cup, the Roland Garros cup for ladies comes back to Romania, to Constanta. I would say that the French reporters on tv were right – Constanta has moved to Paris! And, yes, the Roland Garros trophy has moved to Romania, a very happy Romania!  

  THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING VICTORY, SIMONA!

 

 

 

Cred ca pentru vorbitorii de limba romana nu mai este nevoie de cuvinte…toti o stim pe Simona, toti visam de mult timp la aceasta zi. Azi am mers la biserica mea din cartier si m-am rugat pentru Simona si pentru victoria ei. Am simit ca are nevoie de putin ajutor divin, de putina forta magica…pentru a atinge racheta si mingea astfel incat sa castige. Bucuria ei este si bucuria mea, oriunde m-as afla in aceasta lume. Suntem din aceeasi tara si nu am vreun merit in victoria ei insa in mod virtual o imbratisez ca pe o veche prietena si ii multumesc pentru fericirea pe care mi-a oferit-o astazi, 9 iunie 2018. Sunt momente unice si am vrea sa dureze vesnic insa titlul il pastreaza doar pentru un an, insa un an minunat in care are voie sa mai faca pauze, sa faca plaja la Barcelona sau sa iasa cu prietenii ei din Constanta si sa nu uite niciodata acest moment magic. Azi si pentru un an este romanca cea mai iubita de la noi, nu e asa? 

MULTUMIM SIMONA PENTRU ACEASTA VICTORIE SI FELICITARI !!!!!!

Well done, Simona! Bravo Simona!

   Din nou vesti bune pentru tenisul romanesc:  Simona Halep a devenit pe 7 octombrie a.c. nr. 1 mondial datorita prestatiei din turneul de tenis China Open, din Beijing. 

De asemenea, dupa ce am asteptat atat timp, m-am putut bucura in sfarsit si pentru faptul ca Simona Halep a reusit sa o infranga pe Maria Sharapova pentru prima oara in cariera, o victorie meritata pe deplin, cu scorul de 6-2, 6-2.

In urma meciului castigat in semifinale cu Jelena Ostrapenko (Letonia), Simona a ajuns nr.1 mondial, o performanta unica pentru tenisul romanesc. Iata ce a declarat la sfarsitul acestui meci: ‘ Cuvintele nu pot descrie ce simt acum. Este uimitor că sunt numărul 1 mondial. Mulțumesc fanilor pentru sprijin. Am făcut meciuri extraordinare. Mulțumesc, China!” .

De asemenea, dintre multele mesaje de felicitari primite, Simona a destainuit ca cel mai frumos mesaj l-a primit de la jucatoarea americana Serena Williams, careia i-a multumit imediat pentru frumoasele urari.

Sper ca Simona Halep sa ramana in continuare in topul jucatoarelor de tenis din lume si sa ne dea constant motive de bucurie ca suntem romani, bucurandu-ne alaturi de ea. BRAVO SIMONA!

Again great news for the Romanian tennis: Simona Halep has become on the 7th October the no. 1 tennis player in the world, due to her results in the China Open Tennis tournament in Beijing.

Also,  after I have waited for so long, I could finally enjoy the moment when she managed to defeat Maria Sharapova (Russia), for the first time in her career, with a beautiful victory and the score 6-2, 6-2, at the same tournament. 

After the match she won in the semifinals against Jelena Ostapenko (Latvia), Simona becomes the world no. 1, a unique performance for the Romanian tennis. Here is what she said after this match: ‘No words can describe what I feel now. It is amazing that I have become the world no. 1. I thank all my fans for their support. I have managed to play some incredible matches. Thank you, China!’   

Also, out of all the congratulating messages she has received, she has confessed that the nicest message is the one received from another famous tennis player from the US, Serena Williams, to whom she immediately thanked for the nice wishes.

I truly hope that Simona Halep continues to stay in the top of the world best tennis players and manages to give us constantly many reasons of joy that we are Romanians, being happy by her side.

WELL DONE, SIMONA!
