Africa and the new generation of Women’s Tennis

By a far past, Africa had produced a certain number of female players who were distinguished during the African Juniors Championships and who reached an international high level, following the example of Cara Black (ZIM - 30 years old), (TUN - 32 years old), Dally Randrianteffy (MAD - 32 years old), Bahia Mouhtassine (MAR - 30 years old) and Surina De Beer (RSA - 31 years old) and who belonged to the same generation reaching an international high level. These players were distinguished by winning several ITF & WTA titles as well in singles as in doubles reaching, for the majority a WTA Top 100 ranking.

Since this generation, Africa really did not know big names in female tennis, in spite of the distinction of certain players such as the Moroccan player Fatima Zahra Alami and who are at the beginning of a professional career, which we hope to be promising. Selima Sfar Dally Randrianteffy Bahia Mouhtassine

However, we have to mention that Africa is producing a new generation of female players aged between 15 and 16 years old and that we start speaking about them in the Juniors International Circuit such as (RSA), (TUN) and Nour Abbes (TUN). These three female players recorded enormous progress these two last years and we formally think that they have all qualities to reach a high level in the Women’s tennis in the near coming years at the condition of finding the necessary support from all parts and the best conditions to be able to progress. As follow a summary of each above mentioned players:

Ladies and Presidency of National Tennis Associations The author In the World there are 207 National Tennis Associations affiliated to the International Tennis Federation (ITF), 197 are chaired by men and only 10 Associations are chaired by women which represents less than 5%. It is absolutely not enough if we know that females represent more than 50% of the Globe’s population. On the other hand we can confirm that one of the most important National Tennis Association in the World is chaired by a Lady: Mrs. Lucy Garvin is the President of the United States Tennis Association and one of the most important National Association in Europe is also chaired by a Lady: Mrs. Karin van Bijsterveld is the President of the Netherland Lawn Tennis Federation. In Africa, we can also be proud to have two ladies, Presidents of two very important National Associations. Tennis Zimbabwe is chaired by Mrs. Ann Martin and the Egyptian Tennis Federation is chaired by Mrs. Israa El Sanhoury. We hope that the number of Ladies as Tennis Association Presidents will increase wishing great success for the existing ones. As follow all ladies Presidents of National Tennis Associations in the World:
