Romanian tennis star Simona Halep found it difficult to deal with fame after she entered her first Grand Slam final — the French Open in 2014. She lost to Maria Sharapova in the final.

"In 2014, tennis changed my life. No Romanian tennis player had ever played a Grand Slam final since 1978. People on the street recognised me. I tried to enjoy the attention, but it was stressful," she was quoted as saying by Tennis World USA.
