« I prepared this final mentally and tactically with my coach. And we did it ! It’s great ! This final wasn’t the toughest one that I have played. It was more difficult in 2015 when I lost at home. But my work is not finished yet because we have the team final tomorrow (read Sunday). I want two gold medals. So, right now, I am half happy. Winning in individual is, of course, important for me but winning with the Turkish team is also important. My teammates are like my brothers. We can do everyhting for each other ».
