"She can win 10 or more Grand Slams" says Mats Wilander on Ashleigh Barty

Ashleigh Barty defeated Danielle Collins to win the 2022 Australian Open and Mats Wilander was very impressed with the overall display from the Australian.

It was a superb event that finished the only way possible for Ashleigh Barty who was by far the best player in Melbourne in the past two weeks. The Australian player won her 3rd grand slam trophy overall and for Mats Wilander, it's only the beginning. He said:

“She can win many more because she can win all four of them [the Grand Slams]. I don’t see a style that’s going to bother her, I don’t see a surface that bothers her. I would put her in to play for me any day because I know I’m going to get the best Barty on the day that you can get. She’s going to problem solve, she’s going to have that serve, a sliced backhand. She’s the total package for me. She can win 10 more Grand Slams in my book.”

Wilander had some more praise for Barty as he believes she will take WTA tennis to the next level comparing her influence to that of Roger Federer. He said:

"She’s going to take the women’s game to the next level. Just like Roger Federer did. You would have to come out and beat Roger Federer off the court because he’s going to try and make you feel absolutely miserable. Ash Barty, this is it. This was not a great match today, nor was it a bad match. This was Ash Barty to me. And if you’re Naomi Osaka watching this, you’ve got to come out with some serious weapons and variety or you’re not beating Ash Barty. So I think she’s going to push the level up."
