Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best memory as a tennis player was probably my first ever big tournament when I was 14 years old. That day, I was hitting the ball very clean and my attacking shots were just too good for my opponent. I ended up winning the match and beating a player I had never been able to beat before!
Goals:
My goal is to be a successful college tennis player and then play professionally and hopefully reach a top 100 ATP ranking.
Anything else we should know?
I have a very strong serve and I love to dominate my own service games by controlling the points right from the start!
