Week 37 - ITF (W25) Zagreb, Croatia - Clay

ROSAMUND · Futures level

Ana Konjuh has reached the final. She won Nottingham back in 2015 and was with Bellis one of the two teenagers ranked in the World top 50 in 2017. Playing for Croatia in the Fed Cup qualifiers in 2017 she beat Jo. Seems a life time ago. Goran Ivanisevic was hoping for great things from her.

Strongbow · All-time great

Ah pity.

I do hope that it is nothing too serious to take away from her last 3 weeks' tennis as a teenager. 85 (net 82) ranking points added over these weeks and up from WR 321 on 31/08 to provisionally WR 254 for 28/09.

Happy 20th birthday for tomorrow, 19/09, Fran.

So glad to see her back. Thought she had quit due to injuries. Such a talented player. I remember when she and Belinda dominated juniors

Nice to see her take the title, especially on home soil (although she was playing the final against another Croat). Not the best time to be making a comeback in the terms of the calendar, but hopefully she can take this into wherever she plays next.

Never dropped a set all week, or even faced a TB, but she was extended to 7 game sets a few times.
