Communiqué De Presse Une Ancienne Lauréate De Grand Chelem À Gstaad Gstaad, Le 22 Mai 2018 – La Troisième Édition Du Ladi Communiqué de presse Une ancienne lauréate de Grand Chelem à Gstaad Gstaad, le 22 mai 2018 – La troisième édition du Ladies Championship Gstaad qui se tiendra du 14 au 22 juillet à Gstaad offrira aux amateurs de tennis un plateau relevé. L’ambassadrice du tournoi Timea Bacsinszky (SUI, WTA 63 ) sera présente cette année dans l’Oberland bernois. Samantha Stosur (AUS, WTA 60) , ancienne vainqueur de Grand Chelem, a également confirmé sa participation. En outre, les spectateurs auront le plaisir de retrouver les deux finalistes de l’année d ernière Kiki Bertens (NED, WTA 18 ) et Anett Kontaveit (EST, WTA 25 ) sur la terre battue gstaadoise. Après avoir dû renoncer à participer au tournoi l'année dernière en raison d'une blessure, l’ambassadrice du tournoi Timea Bacsinszky revient dans l'Oberland bernois cette année. "Ce fut très dur pour moi de manquer l'année passée mon tournoi favori en Suisse. Je suis donc d'autant plus motivée cette année et ferai tout mon possible pour essayer de jouer mon meilleur tennis à Gstaad", a déclaré la joueuse Suisse. Les finalistes de l’année dernière restent fidèles à Gstaad En 2016, lors de la première édition du Ladies Championship Gstaad, Bacsinszky avait atteint les demi-finales où elle avait échoué face à Kiki Bertens. Cette spécialiste de la terre battue n’est pas une inconnue dans l’Oberland bernois. Elle viendra défendre son titre acquis lors de la finale 2017 face à Anett Kontaveit. Cette dernière participera également pour la troisième fois au Ladies Championship Gstaad et tentera cette année de repartir avec ce trophée très convoité. Une ancienne lauréate de Grand Chelem à Gstaad Avec Samantha Stosur, le public de Gstaad pourra profiter du talent d’une ancienne vainqueur de Grand Chelem. L’australienne a remporté en 2011 l’US Open et reste, malgré ses 34 ans, une candidate sérieuse à la victoire finale. L’année dernière, elle a remporté le tournoi sur terre battue de Strasbourg. Le cadre idyllique de Gstaad semble être attrayant : en 2016 déjà, le tournoi a eu le plaisir d’accueillir une ancienne lauréate de Grand Chelem, Jelena Jankovic.

  • Teenage Tennis Players with the Best Chance to Become Grand Slam Champions
    Teenage Tennis Players with the Best Chance to Become Grand Slam Champions Could American Taylor Fritz be another Juan Martin del Potro? Is Borna Coric the next Novak Djokovic? Will Switzerland's Belinda Bencic one day hoist as many major trophies as her compatriot Martina Hingis? Could Naomi Osaka surpass Kei Nishikori as Japan's best hope of winning a Grand Slam? Simply being one of the highest-ranked teens on the ATP World Tour or WTA Tour doesn't automatically qualify a player as a future Slam winner. American Catherine Bellis is having her best year and is ranked No. 115. However, she doesn't make the list because she lacks the size and serve of what has become the prototypical Slam winner in the women's game. So, who are the quick studies? The following are teenagers with the best chance of becoming Grand Slam champions. Jelena Ostapenko, Francis Tiafoe and Jared Donaldson get honorable mentions. Latvia's Ostapenko, 19, is ranked No. 46. This year she reached the final in Doha, Qatar, and has wins over Caroline Wozniacki, Petra Kvitova and Svetlana Kuznetsova. Nina Pantic of Tennis.com wrote, "The 5'10" Ostapenko has an aggressive baseliner’s style of play, combined with just enough patience to wait for the right opportunity." Tiafoe, 18, is among a handful of players hoping to end the Grand Slam drought for American men. After surviving a five-set match against Tiafoe at the U.S. Open, John Isner told reporters the teen's "backhand is world-class," per ESPN's Greg Garber.
