So Mimi wins again against Tanasie, 7-5 6-3. Not sure how this works now with UTR tournaments? Good coverage on Amazon Prime though! She is getting plenty of clay court practice!

Mimi wins again 1 and 1. So continues to get plenty of practice on clay in Bucharest. Will she get the prize money? Or is she too young?

 I saw that dodrade, but I cant find anything anywhere to say she has switched.

 Apparently she lived in Northern Ireland, where she has lived since 2009. https://sportsprosconnect.com/profiles/karolabejenaru/

She would be Irish if she switched nationality. Her UTR profile uses her residence as her nationality.

 Tennis Abstract's ELO ratings (based on performances over last 12 months) but using a similar method of weighting for opponents level, has Emma at 22nd. 

So similar to what the UTR rankings are saying relative to her actual WTA level

 

https://tennisabstract.com/reports/wta_elo_ratings.html

for the ytd itself, ELO has Emma at 21st

Lui Maxted celebrated TCU's NCAA National Championship victory by going to Newport Beach to play in the UTR PTT $25k. Ewen Lumsden is also there.
Lui defeated Ewen 6-2 6-4 yesterday.

Kristina Paskauskas is playing the UTR 25k in Long Beach, CA. She has got through the group stage unbeaten and plays USC's #2 Emma Charney in what I presume is the semi-final. Emma finished the college season ranked 32 in the ITA rankings.

I also saw Ola Pitak's name on one of the UTR scoreboards this week

Kristina lost 4 & 2. I only saw the 2nd set, but that set was closer than the score suggests. It got away from her after she was broken in a long multiple deuce game when the ball that landed 2 foot inside the baseline was called out. That was one of a few atrocious line calls to both players.

Her next event is an ITA summer series tournament back at her university in Raleigh, NC in a weeks time.
