Re: The Barty Party Reply #34 – August 29, 2019, 10:27:07 am Great to see Ash off to a good start in the 1st set of her 2nd Rnd match at the US Open.Barty is an anomaly, in that most champions have a real trick, some super skill used as a weapon that sets them apart. Watching Barty she has no real weakness but no major weapon either, just very good all round basics that let her leverage an opponents weakness.Most of the girls have a huge drop-off on one side of their body or the other, or they have power without fitness, not Barty she has the full package.
