Emma Radcuanu says it has been "pretty cool" to receive the congratulations of other players at Indian Wells, but now is the time to get back to business.
The US Open champion, 18, has a bye to the second round of the BNP Paribas Open in California as the 17th seed.
She will face either Colombia's Maria Camila Osorio Serrano or Aliaksandra Sasnovich of Belarus in her first match since winning in New York.
"It's really nice," the Briton said of the congratulations of her peers.
"All the players are very friendly. I'm still very new on the tour - so it's pretty cool.
