This was my first time getting to see Newman play in person.  I’ve seen highlights and watch some online matches but in person I really liked seeing the versatility.  She wasn’t afraid to tweak her approach on the right side and make it a modified slide approach to get the slicing action without eliminating her ability to take a swing down the line.  She routinely hits the ball off high hands or powers it through the block without any issue.
