Pam Shriver Calls Amanda Anisimova’s Backhand ‘Best the Women’s Game Has Ever Seen’

Shriver praised Anisimova’s rapid rise and two-handed backhand on the Inside-in podcast, calling it “maybe the best the women’s game has ever seen.” The 24-year-old leads the WTA with a 20.3% backhand-winner rate this season after winning the China Open. Shriver added her mental strength now matches her physical tools, comparing her drive to Maria Sharapova’s.
