temperament Elite mid-match problem-solver: can absorb a sloppy opening set, adjust tactically, and then dominate the decisive moments with near-perfect break-point conversion.
pattern Serve runs streaky - cold stretches with double-fault clusters early, but capable of clicking into a dominant gear later in the same match.
weapon Return of serve and movement are her core weapons — starves opponents of rhythm and cheap winners
weapon Movement and shot range are elite; tends to take control of points once rallies extend beyond the first strikes.
weapon Defensive game reliably absorbs and blunts aggressive first-strike hitters.
pattern Rated the tour's best three-set player in 2026; extended matches favour her.
pattern Double-fault volatility is her recurring leak, though it has been controlled lately.
weapon Arguably the tour's best retriever; elite defensive coverage.
style Explosive movement plus a dependable serve — she covers ground few opponents can and rarely gives away free points on serve.
temperament Wins by refusing to yield over the length of a match; opponents tend to break down before she does.
