Clay courts could ruin Mogopodi's chances

Sibanda said Mogopodi, Botswana's only representative in the prestigious tournament, was prepared in every way for the competition, but pointed that playing on a clay court, the weather and being coached by a new mentor could work against her. 

"She has developed consistency, technical execution, her fitness levels have improved and her confidence is on a high and she is really looking forward to it."I'm saying all these things with confidence because I expect her to do well although she will face a few challenges," Sibanda told Mmegi Sport.
