Garbine Muguruza, Brilliant And Mystifying

Garbine Muguruza can do it all on the tennis courts. Therefore, it is often mystifying when you see her go through periods on inconsistency. Is it simply a matter of focus or is there more behind the long lapses in concentration that Garbine Muguruza is known for?

Playing Consistently Quality Tennis

There has to be more than a love of the game to play consistently your highest level of tennis. When you look at Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, you realize how passionate they are about the game and giving their best every time they step on court. Unfortunately, not every player has the same attitude.

Garbine Muguruza Is Still Young Enough

Muguruza appears fit and is still young enough to get back to her top level. The question though, “Is that what she desires at this time in her career?” When you lose the drive, the focus follows, and as you get older it is understandable. Let’s hope the Spaniard still wants it because she is a formidable talent when she is fully engaged in the game.
