Matchup analysis
The 👑 The Complete Package archetype wins about 63% vs 🏹 Frontrunner across 222 matches in our dataset. That is a small stylistic lean for Aryna Sabalenka here.
The Complete Package players often use elite serve & return and high bp conversion to pressure the frontrunner's fast starts. On Hard, that can swing with conditions.
