Irina-Camelia Begu Cheering Thread!

I'm surprised there wasn't a thread for this promising Romanian, so I made one. Here it is:
Date of Birth: 26/08/1990
Birthplace: Bucharest, Romania
Residence: Bucharest, Romania
Current Singles Rank: 228(Career-High)
Current Doubles Rank: 358(Career-High)

ITF $75,000 Midland, MI, USA:
QR1-(4)Irina-Camelia Begu ROM d. Mirjana Lucic CRO 6-1 6-3
QR2-(4)Irina-Camelia Begu ROM d. Lindsay Lee-Waters USA 6-1 3-6 7-6(7)
QR3-(4)Irina-Camelia Begu ROM d. (6)Mihaela Pastikova CZE 6-2 6-3

R2- (Q)Irina-Camelia Begu ROM d. (1)Alla Kudryavtseva RUS 6-2 6-1
QF- (Q)Irina-Camelia Begu ROM vs. Katie O'Brien GBR

I was looking for her thread yesterday, and was also surprised when I couldn't find one!

I'm going out on a limb and saying she will be a future top 5 player! :yeah:

Fantastic week for her already, many ITF titles and she is still so young. :hearts:

Good luck! :)

I don't know a lot about her, but I love her name! :D GL for the future, Irina-Camelia!

What's her game like?

Final breakthrough tournament :worship: :drool:

Romania's next big thing.

O'Brien won 6-4 6-3 :sad:. Irina-Camelia will be back in action this weekend, in qualies of WTA Copa Colsanitas in Bogota.

The draw is out, and no sign of Irina-Camelia:sad:. I guess there wasn't enough time for her to get there from Midland :shrug:

Great week for her :)

Irina-Camelia is now ranked 211 in the world, up from #228 last week. That's a new career-high rank for her:)
361 in doubles.

In 50k Clearwater, Irina is playing in QR1 against Canada's Heidi El Tabakh. Irina is seeded 4th in Q ;)

She lost in QR1 6-1 6-1 :scratch:

She must've had an off day:shrug:

Yeah, Irina's played a lot of tennis lately, hopefully it is just that which caused the retirement and she just needs a couple days rest.

Only one position to the Top 200 in the world :)
