Initially, the 20-year-old baseliner thought her studio days were behind her, but says she “caught fire” and recorded the new song.“To be honest, when I released my first song I thought that I would not record any more, it seemed very strange to me,” Yastremska posted on Instagram. “But after a while, after some time, and enjoyed emotions, I caught fire, and decided that there would be a new track!“I do not strive to become a cool artist … I just like to sing, I like this whole atmosphere.”The owner of three WTA titles says singing in front of a microphone is tougher than competing on court.Photo credit: Dayana Yastremska Instagram]]>
