I mean they are the same height, and I'd argue that Maria moves a lot more effective around the court than Karo.
Maria's serve has been her biggest downfall since 2007. |
Maria ****ed up her shoulder due to poor technique. She'll never have a great serve again. Plus, Maria isn't a "pure strike" player, she doesn't produce her power effortlessly like say a Kvitova, Pliskova, Serena, you can see she's actually trying to hit hard (which will cause her more shoulder injuries down the years)
Pliskova already has a great serve, nerves of steel, and her ground game will only grow as she ages.
