Francesca Saroli places 3rd in Level 4 G14 Tennis tournament in Naples, Florida

Hi everyone,

I’m in the USA for my spring break 2.5 weeks, and I’m taking advantage to play 3 tournaments during the 3 weekends while I am here. It’s not easy to find good tournaments here, because since I have been at the academy out of the USA, I have not been able to play tournaments here and so I have lost all my USTA points (earned from winning local tournaments). I wrote in my previous post how I was lucky to be accepted in the last Level 6 tournament in Key Biscayne (after a player in the main draw withdrew). I signed up during this vacation for 2 Level 3 tournaments, but although I am strong enough to participate, I did not qualify because I don’t have any USTA points. This time I found a closed Level 4 tournament in Naples, Florida, which accepts players based on UTR, hurray!
