Miami Open champion Danielle Collins and Sloane Stephens were victorious in the first round of the Charleston Open on Tuesday. Collins, who has announced that this season will be her last due to battling endometriosis, a condition affecting the uterus, defeated Paula Badosa 6-1, 6-4 on the clay courts.
Collins expressed her desire to end her career on a high note, stating, 'I'd rather like to go out with a bang, you know, than the other way. I know everybody has a different way of ending their professional career, and for me, I want to go out playing my best tennis.'
