Former player and current reporter Leif Shiras thinks American tennis is in good hands with
Taylor Fritz and
Amanda Anisimova.
Both of these players have achieved some serious stuff in tennis already although being still quite young. Both of them play a very modern and attacking style of tennis which guarantees them further success if they continue to progress and work hard as they have so far.
Speaking about the Americans and the upcoming US Open, Shiras said:
"I would like to see that Americans doing well and maybe winning a title. It
is time for one of our young American guys, maybe Taylor Fritz you
know. Now that he's gotten some Wimbledon glory, he can have a little bit US
Open glory."
Turning his attention to the WTA side of tennis, Shiras singled out Anisimova as a player he likes a lot:
"I also like Amanda Anisimova. The way she's playing. Get her on a fast hardcourt with her talent, you know maybe it's her time. She's already been quarterfinals now Wimbledon at Roland Garros, can she you know maybe have a big breakthrough in New York, I'd like to see that."
