[JayGatsby]

@JayGatsby she is handling this like such a pro ... to her and her parents

Sloane Stephens, Naomi Osaka and now CoCo

Victoria Duval woulda been up there too had that cancer not gotten in the way and derailed her career

 

[malbaker86]

Thought Taylor Townsend had next but she'll never progress

Whitney Osuigwe could have next too with a bit more seasoning. Just turned 17

Do you have any examples of pro baseball players who started late? And not players who chose other sports then went back to it.

I see this more in basketball.

Olajuwon
Siakam

Just off the top

Those are rare athletes at 6'10 and up. Even then, you have to have exclusive training at another sport, mainly soccer and do things with your body most pros can't do at your height. If you look at any chart, the amount of 6'8 and under NBA players who started late is almost impossible to find

Taylor Townsend dominated juniors like no other but she just was never in shape for the pros

She’ll need a miracle

 

[ThrobbingHood]

She’s got this. She started slow in the previous game. She just needs to relax.

 

[malbaker86]

Gauff is comfy at net which is rare for a young player much less a 15 year old. That's something that takes a lot of time to do

Sloane Stephens, Naomi Osaka and now CoCo

[THE MACHINE]

she had a great run in this tournament. Tonka truck head Halep might be too much
