In the news

“\"It's always been the goal of me and my dad to go slowly and not push things too fast. That's been kind of our plan since I was 12: to go slowly and not pay attention if some other players might get there faster.\"”

How they play

Playing style

Marie Bouzkova is a counterpunching baseliner known for exceptional defensive skills, court coverage, and consistency in extended rallies. She employs tactical variety with slices, drop shots, and precise placement to disrupt opponents, redirecting pace effectively with her reliable two-handed backhand. Her all-court game makes her dangerous on clay and hard courts, where she grinds down aggressive players through superior movement and mental toughness.

Serve
Bouzkova's serve prioritizes placement and consistency over power, with a 66% first-serve percentage and low ace rate of 1.48 per match. She uses body serves and variety to set up favorable second serves and limit aggressive returns.
Groundstrokes
Bouzkova possesses solid groundstrokes with good depth and spin, her two-handed backhand serving as a key weapon for redirecting pace. She excels in baseline exchanges, using heavy topspin and angles to control points.
Movement
Exceptional movement and court coverage define Bouzkova, allowing her to retrieve difficult balls and thrive in long rallies. She prefers clay but performs well across surfaces due to her agility and defensive prowess.
Weakness
Bouzkova lacks a big serve and struggles against top power players, with a low ace count and vulnerability to aggressive first-strike tennis. Opponents exploit this by dominating short points and avoiding prolonged rallies.
