“I didn’t even think about her being No. 5,” Bergman said. “I just wanted to win my match so we could go to Gainesville.”
After struggling through most of this season, nothing has kept Bergman down. Three weeks ago, she beat No. 23 Alice Pirsu. Saturday’s victory at No. 5 was another giant leap.
Next up is the nation’s No. 4 player Amber Liu, yet another opponent that, on paper, Bergman is not supposed to beat.
But that’s why they play the games.
