Let's hear it for Tereza! She's 17 years old (born in November 1990). According to her ITF file, she was born in Pula but lives in Porec.

She reached her highest rank so far in May 2007, at #738. After that she didn't play for almost a year, until April of this yar (school?) so she lost her ranking.

She's now back in action and seems to be playing well. Last month, she reached the SF at the $10K in Mostar and the final at the $10K in Budva. This week, she's playing at the $10K in Torino. She qualified easily, winning both her qualie matches 60 60. The best part is that yesterday in the main draw, she won her first-round match against the #2 seed, Maria Irigoyen (#251 in the world), very easily: 61 61. Very impressive! Given that result, her next match, against Nancy Rustignoli (#819; never heard of her), should be very winnable.

With her first-round win yesterday, she'll be able to re-enter the rankings at around 860. Hopefully she'll keep winning this week and move up even higher than that.

Best of luck, Tereza!

A very nice start, given it's a comfortable win against a player who is very close to Tereza in ranking, so goo job so far! Next one against (probably) Brianti could be "a bit" trickier though...someone who was a top 100 regular, at one point almost top 50 and is a seasoned veteran too. But even if she'd lost it wouldn't be the end of the world.

Tereza also teamed up with her possible opponent in the upcoming Fed cup, Sofia Shapatava, and they lost the opening round of doubles to a wild-carded team Glushko/Konta 7:6, 6:3. Too bad about that, but good that Tereza had some doubles match practice before FC as well.

Good luck in R2!

Tereza Mrdeza (CRO) d. Tadeja Majeric (SLO) 62 61
:eek: :eek: :eek:

Amazing win!

I didn't expect Tereza to win, and certainly not so convincingly. Majeric is ranked higher and had won 14 of her last 15 singles matches (ie, two $25K titles and one $25K runner-up finish).

This might get Tereza into the top 190. She's getting close to her CH ranking of 181, from last August.
