Thread for Jazzi Plews.

After helping GB to victory in the European Summer Cup a couple of weeks ago, 14 year old Jazzi has won two ITF grade 4 titles in a row. Today's title was the Flower Bulb tournament.

Jazzi currently has a 20-2 record in her last 22 ITF junior singles matches.

She should be well inside the top 300 in tomorrow's ITF rankings.

Plews ranked third in world after Brazil trip : http://www.beverleyguardian.co.uk/s...ed-third-in-world-after-brazil-trip-1-5041175

Plews’ father and coach, Richard isn’t surprised at his daughter’s sensational year.

“I’m not shocked to see how well she’s doing,” said Plews.

“She has come on a lot recently but I think that has come through her physical development which has happened naturally as she’s grown up.

“She’s always achieved nationally and internationally and won significant ranking tournaments so it’s nothing more than she deserves.”

Jazzi certainly looking like one to watch. Gabby Taylor has done well in her junior events so far and Maia not so bad but slipped off a bit recently

Re: Jazzi Plews

I've been following Jazzi's results these past few months. You guys are lucky, she really does seem like she could be good! I noticed that at the G4 Flower Bulb Tournament in July she comfortably beat Lizette Cabrera and Priscilla Hon who are two of Australia's three best youngsters of the same age group.

I've done some research to find out more about her. She's been living in Barcelona since September 2010, where she trains at the famous Sanchez-Casal Tennis Academy. She's clearly trying to take the same route as Andy Murray, and so far it's working! I guess that also explains why all her ITF tournaments have been on clay. :p It's definitely unusual for a British player. Here's a video interview with her earlier in the year at the Sanchez-Casal Tennis Academy. :)

I know it's still early days but to have such a great winning record in juniors initially is a great sign, especially seeing as generally the scorelines are very convincing. It'll be interesting to see how she goes at some higher level junior events in 2013 and maybe she can even play some $10K pro events. :yeah:
