Will win her first Grand Slam by 17...then 2 per year after that....minimim.

If she keeps her head and remains healthy


Girl is still learning and still growing....yet she already shows skills and versatility Serena was not showing till 22.

Great control...great shotmaking....incredible power for her age.

Very impressive. And she six months younger than my youngest daughter....exactly.

I definitely agree with your assessment
and in my opinion she has a good body
structure , which ensures that she would not have weight problems .

I think that she is restricted to playing in only 4 senior tournaments per year until she is older .

She should be able to play 15 or so tournaments starting in march....and by march next year when she turns 17 she'll be ready yo hit all the Majors and compete for Championships.

Serena had Henin...,.Gauff has Kenin.

She just could not figure out Kenin.

I saw an interview after she defeated Osaka, she seemed to look past Kenin to the possible matchup with the Woman who beat Serena....Wiang?

Neither of them made it.

As I said....by 17!

She is still not strong enough to dominate an entire draw.

She will have a chance by the AO next year and I to her seventeenth year.

Am also curious to see how she does at Wmbledon...she has the ground strokes to be a force on grass....but needs experience and the fortitude to, again, last an entire two weeks.
