OVERALL ABILITY ON THE COURT:
My style of play is aggressive from the baseline and at the net. When I play, I try to control the court with my powerful forehand, while my backhand opens it up with control and consistency. My first serve is a key weapon in my game, and my second serve is also difficult for my opponent to handle because it carries a lot of spin and power. I’m fast, and I use my slice a lot to change the pace of the match. I feel confident saying I’m a very well-rounded player.
STRENGTHS ON THE COURT:
My greatest strength is my serve. My first serve is powerful, and my second serve is difficult for my opponent to return due to its spin and weight. Another of my weapons is my forehand. I really put pressure on the other player with the amount of spin it generates, and in decisive moments, it’s the shot that helps me define the point aggressively. At the same time, I’m a warrior on the court, and I never give up. I’m very competitive, and I fight until the very last point.
HOBBIES AND PERSONAL INTEREST
In my free time, I enjoy stringing my rackets; it brings me peace and happiness because they’re my weapon for playing tennis. I also like to stay active, so I go to the gym.
I like to play guitar, and it’s been one of my favorite activities since I was little.
DESCRIBE YOURSELF AS A PERSON
I identify as a cheerful and friendly person. I enjoy helping others feel better. I am a disciplined person. I like to start something and finish it in the best way possible without giving up. I am very organized.
One of my greatest strengths is making people laugh, and also making new friends. While I enjoy socializing with many people, I also love spending time with my family and having fun.
