Playing style

style Defense-first game plan: slows the tempo, leans on court coverage, then picks selective moments to flip to offense.

style Physical, aggressive baseline game: powerful serve and heavy groundstrokes that dictate rallies.

style Aggressive baseliner who wins on weight of shot and physical intensity rather than on variety.

temperament Level swings widely from match to match; can beat anyone on a good day and look flat on a bad one.

pattern Error rate climbs in long attritional points; wins by stepping inside the baseline and striking first.

style Clean, powerful ball-striking

pattern Kostyuk has never passed the US Open fourth round — soft spot in a strong Slam record

temperament Holds up in tight passages and has produced fightbacks from a set down

style Athletic all-court game rather than one dominant shot
