Sixteen year-old Elena is at a career high ranking right now in juniors of #15 but keeps rising.
She won a GA in Brazil in March, beating Chala, Konta, and then Jovanovski in the final and then took some time off (possibly for school?) before returning last week at a G1 in Italy losing easily to Burnette.
Hopefully she is back in form this week at the Italian Open, another GA.
GA Italian Open 1R: [5] Elena Bogdan d. [WC] Claudia Giovine 6-4 6-2
Good start over a wild card, hope she is ready to go now because the real tournament starts. Nadia Lalami awaits her in the second round, haide Elena!

You don't need to go into a player's forum and criticise their game.

Re: Elena Bogdan (ROU), Storming Up The Ranks!
I appreciate Gigi's feedback, I was wondering how she played.
She is still young and has time to develop her game.
Good luck in the quarterfinals, Lena. :yeah:

I forgot to mention, Lena is at a new career high rank of #12 in the world, almost Top10!
I am hoping for a good run at Roland Garros, hope she isn't too tired after the past couple of weeks.

Good fight at least, wish the third set would have been closer. To be honest I expected her to be blown away.
Hope she can get a good draw at RG.
