Rebeka Masarova is an interesting story that many of you may not have heard. Masarova was born in Basel Switzerland; however, she plays for Spain. She is quite tall and still relatively young at twenty-four years old. Believe it or not, she was at a career high of sixty-two just last month. Her favorite shot is her serve; however, I am more curious to find out what is her favorite thing to bake as that is one of her favorite hobbies. Why the fascination with her baking? I too enjoy baking and am always curious to learn to bake something new or in an unusual way.

Masarova Unable To Defend Final Points

However, back to tennis. Rebeka Masarova won the 2016 French Open junior championship. So why the move to represent Spain in 2018? Masarova’s mother is Spanish. If you are wondering about her last name, her father is Slovak. She also reached the Australian Open junior championship final in 2017 as the top seed. What has she done professionally? In 2023, Rebeka Masarova made it to the ASB Classic final in Auckland but lost to Coco Gauff. This year she lost in the first round in Auckland, hence the drastic drop in her ranking.
