Clara Tauson Moving Up The Rankings

Clara Tauson

What do you know about Clara Tauson? The first time I saw her play she was heavily bandaged; yet, I could see power is a part of her arsenal. Did the injury affect her mobility, or does she need to work on that aspect of her game? I think at this age, she is still growing into her game and no doubt her team is quite aware of what needs improving.

Clara Tauson Is The Mover Of The Week

She knows how to win on the big stage. At the age of sixteen, she won the junior Australian Open. She made her breakthrough on the WTA tour earlier this year in Lyon.  She won the 250 event from the qualifying rounds without dropping a set. Thus, this young lady has focus and mental fortitude.

Eighteen-year-old Clara Tauson gets the mover of the week honors because I think she has game. If, a little word with big implications, she can stay healthy, how high can she climb?
