    I'm a fan of Sakkari cause she's immensely talented. She's added more attack style to her game but she still likes to hang around the baseline to much and be passive at times. She should add the occasional Serv & Volley in the mix. I believe she's overthinking during her matches.
    Jule is looking fantastic and I hope she's does well. Thi is her best surface.

    Least spoken FH in WTA and in my eyes TOP5 FH among current players interms of power. Julia just has to figure out how to build her game around that fire balls she can smack on FH side.
    She reminds me of Kyle Edmund on ATP tour, powerful FH and good game in general. He's been injured for a long time now unfortunately.
