Emma Raducanu and Serena Williams are going to face off in what will be the most intriguing first-round match in Cincinnati (WTA). Both players are in a completely different stage of their great careers. Emma is still a teenager and she has already a slam title under her belt. On the other side, Serena has won 23 majors and she also has announced her imminent retirement.
Emma is still fine-tuning her tennis and it’s pretty clear she needs to improve her game at the net. Here is a video of the British teenager practicing her volleys in Ohio.
Actually, the technique is pretty good
