My Take

Christina McHale is the kind of player I quietly root for. The New York Times once praised her booming groundstrokes and quick feet, and that captures her perfectly, a baseliner who simply refuses to give ground. Reaching world No. 24 in singles is no small feat in such a deep era of women's tennis, and she did it through grit rather than hype. Coming out of Teaneck, New Jersey, she always read to me as a worker more than a star, someone who grinds out points step by step. I have a soft spot for athletes who build their case on effort, and she is one of them.

Overview
