    What impresses me most about Leylah on the grass is how much her variety is showing. Mixing up her serve so well, moving so effortlessly, taking the ball really early and using every inch of the court. So glad her talent is really showing through.

    Leylah was quite effective in neutralizing Madison's serve, but this was a super close match, one extra break of serve was all that separated winner from loser. Madison was the defending champion in Eastbourne, so everything is possible now for Leylah, let's go for the title !

Leylah beat a total of 3 Grand Slam winners (Sabalenka future winner), 1 WTA year end final winner, 3 former world number 1s.

    She has been a great competitor since her final appearance in NY 2021, but this year she has stepped up her game by adding way more speed to her strokes, especially forehand. I think she might be a top ten players for some years if staying healthy.
