Simona Halep "confident" of success at Grand Slams

Simona Halep is "confident" that she can be successful at Grand Slam tournaments.

Simona Halep has said that she is increasingly confident at Grand Slam tournaments, after she progressed to the Australian Open fourth round.

The third seed was forced to fight for her victory against Bethanie Mattek-Sands, but she eventually prevailed 6-4 7-5 and will now face Yanina Wickmayer in the next round.

She told reporters: "Here I started last year to play my best tennis. I [played in] my first quarter-final in Grand Slams, then I made the final in the French Open. I have more confidence now during Grand Slams and I believe I have my chance at every tournament."

The 23-year-old has won nine career singles titles.
