Sania Mirza's coach John Farrington says the 18-year-old Indian sensation has a very good chance of defeating top seed Maria Sharapova should the two lock horns in the women's singles fourth round of the US Open Grand Slam tennis.
Farrington said the type of game the Russian star plays suited Sania better than any other player's.
"Sania can do extremely well. Maria (Sharapova) hits with a lot of pace, and so Sania doesn't need to generate pace on her own," Farrington said.
"We have got good opportunity, good chance. We do have a game plan for Maria," he added.
According to Farrington, Sania encountered a 'slow' opponent in Marion Bartoli of France in the fourth round. "Bartoli hits with a slow pace and as such Sania has had to generate all the power," he said.
