MELBOURNE, Jan 24 — Simona Halep said she felt “sick and dizzy” during her gruelling Australian Open clash with Alize Cornet in sweltering heat today and admitted she was on the verge of giving up.

She kept going but lost the gruelling fourth-round clash 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 in 2hr 33min, red in the face and frequently bending over to try to catch her breath. “It’s tough to play in the heat, and I was not ready today. She was a little bit stronger, and that’s why she could win the match.“But I felt like she was starting to miss, and I just stayed there. I fought for every ball. But with not much confidence.”
