Hopefully Cristina will make a good comeback tournament
But none on the WTA Tour, not since October 2011. But I'm glad to hear she played college tennis in the US in the meantime (apparently she played for Texas A&M University ans she finished this season on the 10th position), hopefully this experience will help her just like it helped Jill Craybas, Laura Granville, Mallory Burdette and so many others on the tour in the past.
Anyways, it's been decided her opponent in the second round tomorrow and Raluca Elena Platon it is. Cristina can do it, no doubt about that. Best of luck!
that dress. Making the semis here is a very good result for her first ITF tournament after a lengthy break from the pro tour. Hope she does well going forward, too!
Cristina is number 5 in ITΑ ranking in US college. Definitely is a vey good player. Also I found there Ilinca Stoica, Ana Vladutu si Georgiana patrasc which have played itf tournaments in Romania
