This week on Tennis With An Accent, Saqib Ali is joined by TWAA contributor Mert Ertunga to talk about the Miami open. The conversation takes a deep dive into Miami champion Ashleigh Barty’s all around game. Barty uses lot of variety compared to her opponent in the final Kristina Pliskova, according to Mert. It’s a fascinating contrast of how players succeed in these modern homogenized conditions of professional tennis. Mert also sheds light into the promising ATP youngsters Denis Shapovalov and Stefanos Tsitssipas, who played the match of the tournament in Miami.

After these topics, the focus shifts to the Swiss Maestro Roger Federer, who was victorious for the fourth time in Miami. A lot of information is unpacked here from Federer’s current level, dividends of the bigger racquet frame he switched to five years ago, and the early outlook on his return to clay. Clay season power ranks are discussed to cap off the conversation with Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and other top men getting mentions.
