Professional qualities
Duckworth is a tennis player who, despite his short stature, demonstrates a good serve and actively goes to the net. However, his vulnerability lies in long draws and backhand play. The two—handed backhand is his weak side, and it is difficult for him to compete with the strong punches of his opponents.
