Well, maybe it's not nice to say this on this forum, but I think she is less talented than Agi. :help: But I hope she will be good enough to make a good doubles with Agi, because I know that Agi loves her and she really wants to play doubles with her. ;)

It just wouldn't be fair to give Blanka a thread in Tennis Hungaria, while there are several other Hungarians who deserve threads more than Blanka, and they don't have:shrug:
For example, Timea Babos is an ITF junior top 5 player atm. She is also 1993 and doesn't have a thread:shrug:

Q. In Hungary, we've seen some countries like Serbia, for example, where one player breaks through and then suddenly coming after are three or four others. Is there many indications that in Hungary there are some players ready to follow you through?
AGNES SZAVAY: I hope my sister going to be the next. She's 15, and she's playing junior tournaments. Really.
Q. What's she called?
AGNES SZAVAY: Blanka. She's playing very good, so I hope she's going to be on the tour.
Q. Would you play doubles with her?
AGNES SZAVAY: Yeah, for sure. That's our plan.
Speaking of Timea, she definitely is talented. I would be surprised if she couldn't become a very good senior.
Timea just won her 2 qually matches reaching the main draw of her very first pro/senior ITF tournament (Bournemouth, 10k). Congrats and keep going Timi. :yeah:

I completely forgot it to tell here :facepalm: So as libre83 has already said in the Budapest Open thread she finished her pro career. But we know this just because a Hungarian tv made recently a long interview with Ági and she said this. Blanka wasn't so good as they expected/wanted her to be and the pressure was too much on Blanka because of Ági's successes and the expectations. :sad:

But when it comes to tennis you can't be too realistic if you want to give yourself a shot at making it.
However, your heart has to be in it, and perhaps her heart isn't really in it.
