Kim Clijsters has backed Aryna Sabalenka’s French Open chances while questioning how much damage her shots will do on Paris clay. The comment points to a surface-specific challenge at Roland Garros for the top WTA contender. For Sabalenka, the issue is whether her power translates as effectively on clay as it does elsewhere. Clijsters described the effect as 'weird,' but the message was that Sabalenka can still be dangerous.
