Platform

Paolini is one of the most energetic and athletic players on tour. Despite standing just 1.63m, she plays a fearless, all-court attacking game, using exceptional speed and a compact, powerful forehand to compete with much bigger hitters.

She moves brilliantly, takes the ball early, and is comfortable coming forward — a genuine all-court game that produced finals at both Roland Garros and Wimbledon in 2024. Her positivity and shot variety make her a difficult opponent on any surface.

How her equipment supports her style: The Yonex VCORE 100 is a spin-and-power frame that suits her aggressive, compact swings. Yonex Poly Tour Pro is a comfortable, control-oriented poly that complements her all-court style.
