Former world no.1 Tracy Austin has been inducted into the Rogers Cup Hall of Fame. During a recent call, Tracy said that the most impressive player of the year for her is Jelena Ostapenko after that incredible run at the Roland Garros followed by Garbine Muguruza.
Why Ostapenko was impressive. AUSTIN
During the call, Tracy explained
“There are so many different adjectives you can use to describe the women’s side, but the most impressive would have to be Ostapenko winning her first title ever. We’re talking about, no Internationals or Premiers, and suddenly she wins the French Open.
The way that she was down and battled back, winning three or four of her matches in three sets. She was down a set and 3-0 down in the final. That was very impressive, and she’s had decent results since then.”
… about Muguruza
Talking about another impressive player, Tracy had to pick Garbine after the Spaniard won Wimbledon. Austin commented
“Garbiñe Muguruza hadn’t been back to a final at any tournament after winning the French Open last year, and now here she is, winning Wimbledon. When she’s on, she’s really on.”
These are 2 perfect picks. What’s next?
