#repost @behindtheracquet ・・・ “I started to play tennis when I was 8 years old in my hometown of Brela, a small city in the Croatian coast. It only took about half a year before I was winning national tournaments. I remember in 2011 when I qualified and got to the semifinals of my first futures tournament and I was invited to play junior Fed Cup. In the summer of that year was when my biggest support passed away, my grandfather. I was absolutely devastated and was truly tough to get through this time.

I didn’t have much support from the federation, while others were being taken care of. It is not easy making your way through without help or sponsors to back you up. I struggled to practice and develop my game, as I couldn’t afford the necessary coaches. I also didn’t have any indoor courts to use. For some when it rains or the weather is bad it means just going inside, but for me it meant no practice. I am lucky to have my father who was a professional football player, and member of the first every Croation National Team, be there to push me through...” @marianadrazic Read full story at behindtheracquet.com
