Commenting on Channel 9, the former world No. 1 doubles player Todd Woodbridge praised Ashleigh Bartys slice backhand comparing it to the Roger Federers. Woodbridge, speaking during the Australian players win over, used the word Federesque
Woodbridge also praised Bartys fighting spirit: Theres a difference between outplaying your opponent and intimidating them, he said. Co-commentator Sam Smith added: The best players in the womens game are so good at getting that break straight back.
Of course, the best of those is Serena Williams. commented on how it felt to face in a mixed doubles match at the Hopman Cup of Perth earlier this month.
It was a wonderful atmosphere, one Id been looking forward for some time, admitted the world No. 3. I had a bad serve percentage against her it must have had something to do with Serenas aura.
Im not kidding. Shes a wonderful player but we won in the end so I was happy about that, too! ALSO READ: Rafael Nadal: Worse players than David Ferrer won a Grand Slam title
