Well he has lost to two CNT upstart in a row now so countermeasures have clearly been deployed and he has work to do.

Shin also lost some of here competitive junior years to injuries. But she is still 20. While there is always injury risk, there is a lot of time to get better over the next cycle.

No. Don't give him excuses. People are allowed to just complain about BS. The idea that a teenager/20 year old should be characterized by her limitations is bewildering. And this is in the presence of obvious achievements. I have always found it interesting how in doubles, lefties get all...

Service is a creative activity and there are many grips that allow you to get good spin, even though they might have some limitations. Aruna doesn't serve that much pendulum and mostly serves punch and backhand. Trust me the spin is max, even the straight backspin and no spin he occasionally does.
