Excellent win for Marni over the second seed. (As before, I've heard good things about that girl but never seen her play....) And a nice win for Alex too.
Interesting you should say re Marni, CD. I do recall hearing pretty good things about her, born October 2002 just a month older than Emma Radacanu.
And I noted her lose a tight 3 setter during Emma's run to the title in the Liverpool G5 tournament in November 2015 without dropping a further set, the first ITF outing for both. Emma had been a bit more talked about and clearly that success and more just added, but I was looking forward to following both paths.
Marni though has not gone on to play a relative great many ITFs, though about as many as Emma in total, and not made much particular impression to date. Still very young of course and I'd be interested to hear anything more about her.
I think Marni is still based in Spain so, if that's right, I imagine she's playing Spanish domestic tennis for competition practice and not bothering too much with juniors. (Although I might well be wrong.....)
Thanks CD. If that is based in Spain because of her tennis ( as opposed to separate family reasons ) that is quite a commitment at that age with serious intent.
