Ostapenko is a purely attacking tennis player, she is always charged to finish each draw with a straight shot. When Elena is in shape, it's almost impossible to stop her. On the other hand, if the game didn't go well, then you can see a huge number of unforced errors and complete failures.

Since the beginning of the year, Ostapenko has actually held only one successful tournament, when she made it to the finals in Doha. There is no need to talk about any progress in Elena's game.
