Whirlwind from Canada, Bianca Andreescu feels she plays different tennis from others on the WTA Tour. The Canadian star sees the game from a different perspective and several sports media have labeled her “fun to watch.”

The teenager plays a game which is a blend of variety and power. She plays aggressive and comes up with drop shots and confuses her opponents with lobs and passing shots. Her inside-out forehand winners beautifully kiss the baseline and in a nutshell, Andreescu’s game is unpredictable. 

“I can start with my game style; I think I play different than most players on the tour and it’s given a lot of difficulty for them when I play them, so I think that’s one,” Bianca Andreescu said.

Also, her activities on the court are different from others and she feels that everything she does is amusing. “And I guess just the things that I wear, how I act on camera, off-camera. I think I’m pretty funny, sometimes I have no filter which I think is very… like other people can connect with that and vibe with that,” Andreescu added.

The pride of Canada has astonished the tennis world after she won the Indian Wells title this year as a wildcard entrant. Her ranking on the WTA ladder escalated and after having an injury-prone clay and grass season, Andreescu resurged as a tennis marvel during North American summer.

She was not just victorious in her home city of Toronto, the Canadian strode to accomplish the US Open 2019 title after defeating the legend of the sport, Serena Williams in the finals.

World Number five, Bianca Andreescu makes her debut at WTA Finals this year. She lost her opening round match to Simona Halep after taking off the first set from her. She was disappointed after her slump against the Romanian hero in Shenzhen and apparently Andreescu dealt with back issues during the match.

“In the third set, I really don’t want to blame my back, but I felt like I didn’t have the same power as I did in the first and second set,” Bianca Andreescu mentioned after her loss. Up next, she is scheduled to play Karolina Pliskova in Shenzhen.
