Command Analysis
Dayana Yastremska

Yastremskaya is in good shape right now, demonstrating her usual aggressive game, and with a small number of unforced errors.

Thus, Dayana came closer to achieving her best result on the local courts – reaching the quarterfinals.
Professional qualities
Dayana has been playing attacking tennis throughout her career, preferring to take risks and shoot straight rather than constantly practice on the back line in protracted draws. When she's in shape, it's not so easy to stop her.
