Carla Suarez Navarro: 'Serena Williams' strongest weapon is...'

In an interview with Marca, Carla Suarez Navarro revealed what's Serena Williams's strongest weapon. The Spaniard made a comparison between Aryna Sabalenka and Serena Williams who are both very powerful players. "It's different.

What I would stand out about Serena is her serve', Suarez Navarro said. 'But Sabalenka is aggressive on serve, forehand, backhand... But she has potential. If she works well, she will go very far. Osaka is able to think more. It's good for tennis that new players breakthrough." She also commented on Serena's comeback from maternity.

She reached four Grand Slam finals. "All the tennis players who have been mothers, including Serena, and who have come back, are already admirable. Serena is not the best of history in what we saw of her but she showed that she can be back to win matches, reaching semifinals, quarters...

Every time that someone heads onto the court to play against her knows that she will have to give 100% to win." Caroline Wozniacki spoke about her exhibition match against Serena that will happen in 2020: "It came the moment when I ended my career and I am looking forward to playing my last match at home in front of such a big crowd.

It will be something really special. The end of my career cannot happen anywhere but at home and against the greatest player ever and my friend Serena Williams. It will be an evening I will never forget, I am sure."
