Some players just take the chance of competing in the Eddie Herr/Orange Bowl and then make the transition to the women's circuit, but Steph's heavy autumn schedule suggests she intends to continue with junior tournaments. Perhaps she feels she needs a longer break, and will restart in late January / February.

Maybe the fact that her boyfriend is also tourin the states for the tournament that is a major factor also?

LOL!. So who is that then?

Steph might play the european events or might go down to south america. I doubt the secon option. We usually send a group of girls who are ranked between 200-400 there so its probably going to the 1993 crop that go next year.
