"I focused on my process, taking it one game at a time, but it was a tough journey. I truly appreciate this team for their support. Despite performing well throughout the year, I found it difficult in this major tournament. However, the trust shown by the team and management meant a lot to me. I felt emotional during the tournament and reached out to the coach and captain, who reassured me that I would help win crucial matches. The crowd's support has been invaluable, even during our struggles," he added.
