āJodar, who will turn 18 on Sept. 17, said after his victory he wasnāt sure if he would still go to the University of Virginia as planned.ā

That level of success usually translates to turning pro. But in pictures I saw from the US Open he could definitely benefit from a year or two of physical training to gain strength and fill out his body. So difficult to do that on the road in the Challengers.

So is there something Iām missing that the Russian winner has a harder top-spin forehand than the semi-final guys did?

She hits very hard. But in general, the top women tend to hit flatter shots than the top men and hitting flatter is faster. The way Iāve seen it explained that the risk/reward on flat shots is better on the womenās side because they can hit it harder relative to how well the players can cover the court.

Yes, the biggest difference between the men and women is movement. They can all hit the snot out of the ball. Getting to the corners to return the ball with pace is a different story.

Maybe Tony just has Endometriosis and is still evaluating his options.
