The right-handed Sopron resident (pictured right) already plays most of her tournaments at the adult level, but her current world rank of 498 did not allow her to enter the qualification stage of a major tournament. “I’m ecstatic, because we played very well together. So well, in fact, that we agreed to enter future tournaments together,” said the overjoyed Babos.
