Maybe its gonna take a few weeks to get her grass court game together.. Question... Did Borg ever play a grass court tuned up back in the day?
She won a title with the hitting partner,maybe she needs to fire Kamau and make her hitting parther the coach.
No Borg rented a house with a grass court in the back yard and practice there, for hours, before Wimbledon
Tossip
It was the latter.. Sloane is not the player that you want to play a match if your family's well being is at stake. I will ask Kamau Murray his insights about why her motor run so low at times.
We all know Sloane is a lazy trainer, I personally feel that is one of the reasons at times she runs out of gas.
Hi Tossip.. I truly dont feel its Kamau or the hitting coach.. Its Sloane.. Its just who she is. Sloane has her GS, She has her endorsements,, Sloane is not the competitor Serena is. Or even Vee, Saba or Iga . I was responding to your post and look what came across my google phone.
perfectly stated Tossip.. I mean right afterwards I typed This is who she Is, I had the video on my phone. Yes, Sloane is gonna regret she didnt take advantage of the Non Serena Slam years 2018-2022.. Sloane should have won several slams and really didnt have a challenger to be the top American Female or really male tennis player. Like I said earlier, you dont get too many opportunities to retake a final exam.
MM, there no gunpowder, no candle wick, no gasoline in Sloane. It just not in her. I would have to say the same for Gael Monfils but to a lesser degree. Keys has the fire but dont have the tennis calm to play at the top of her level during the critical parts of the match. You have to play this game like someone is trying to snatch food from your families' table. Heck, Sloane plays like she will give you her place at the table and serve you a nice drink while you are enjoying the meal. Just my two cents worth.
As I said it is a 'shame' cause she had the potential to win more GS, she doesnt have a 'champion mentality' to start with, I mean a player can have all the shots in the world but if they dont have the 'hunger' they can forget about it, the game today is 80% mental, Sloane fits into that category, as I said I dont know why she is still on the tour? maybe her home life dosent warrant her to be there full time.
Agreed its a Shame. Well Let's give her credit, she made a grand slam final at RG and won the US Open. When she is engaged she can produce some inspiring tennis. Well, we know if its up to @kskate2 Keli, Sloane 's snt gonna make it to the HOF. jajaja I know Keli likes Sloane but was hoping she would be able to carry on the heavy shoes legacy of the Williams Sistas.
When was the last time she 'was engaged'? in a tennis match, also when behind she gives up, like today in her match against Emma in the 2nd set? she kept going to Emma's strike zone? and didnt win a point 6-0 in the 2nd set.
MM. she's had "fire in the belly" coaches (Annacone, Roig), but it didn't matter. They probably saw uncompetitive and lazy work ethic and was like hell to the naw.
She didn't have to the fill the shoes of the Sistas (no one can). She just needed to develop and maximize that talent her way and she would have been aight. But no, she's a lazy satisfied so and so and even Mugu has better career numbers than Scone. It's really unacceptable.
