Sorry, if there is already a thread for her, but Alexa just won her 1st round junior RG singles match today. She's the 10th seed and beat Pavlyuchenkova 6-2 6-2. She's only 15 years old. A few weeks ago she beat Jessica Kirkland pretty handily in straigh sets. She's going to be part of the future of American tennis.
Yes, she is, today she beat one of my Russian junior faves Alla Kudryatvseva in 3 sets with the third set going 13-11 ! She's also very tall as well and pretty thin, saw her in Melbourne the last 2 years in juniors.
apparently no one cares about our last american hope... after the Williams... there is no one in juniors ready to dominate... Alexa is rising slowly, but steadily apparently.
I may understand that many American players' fans are not really into tennis but more into their players... but for the few who really are into tennis.. why don't they outstand?
No matter what... my fellow patriot Americans won't spare some of their warm fanship to her. They desire not to begin the field since early with her instead of joining the bandwagon later...
