After a strong performance in the Eddie Herr Kylie Bilchev is seeded 3 here. Holly Fischer is also an under 12, but is tackling the under 14s here, an event Maia Lumsden won in 2012
Seedings are difficult to work out for under 12s because of the lack of international competitions, but they have proved accurate here as the top 8 seeds all make the last 16
Good stuff Kylie. Already showing someone to keep an eye on.
Shame for Holly Fischer but good to see her step up to an older age group.
A little more information on Kylie. She turns 13 in February. She is based in Ipswich and the family had to raise the money themselves to get to the Orange Bowl as they put a profile on the pledgesport site. and a nice profile.
thank you especially to DavidC - the way you come on here so quietly just doing your work, very nice . I often have a look at the juniors and know so much more now than before. thank you to all the contributors to this board :)
I agree wholeheartedly it is enlightening to see the enormous amount of time and effort that goes into the junior tennis scene at the elite level. Great to see the kids progress and some transition to pro tennis. Thanks
