Holmes-Winn on Williams:
"Ellie suffered from compartment syndrome during the fall and spring. Despite the pain she still managed to make significant strides with her game. This spring, Ellie systematically tackled all the areas of her game that needed improvement. She was consistently one of the strongest players in our individual sessions. We all were so impressed with her determination and ability to play through a very painful injury. Ellie has a great deal of promise and we are excited to have her back healthy and at 100%.”
