I have high hopes for Lauryn J-B. She's always been talented but when younger was, to say the least, a bit highly strung on the match court! However, she was out for over a year with a back (I think) injury and returned a very down to earth, calmer and extremely hard working young lady. I now foresee her quietly and steadily moving up and fulfilling her talent.
