Interview

 

What makes you different?

I enjoy to compete as much as possible and often far from home in order to challenge against unknown players. I bring a strong competitive spirit and a passion for teamwork to my game. While tennis is often an individual sport, I thrive in team environments and love the camaraderie and mutual support that comes with playing for a collective goal. My dedication to improving both on and off the court reflects my disciplined approach to sports and academics. This combination of athletic ability, teamwork mindset, and academic ambition, particularly in pursuing studies related to the medical field, makes me a unique and motivated student-athlete.

Why do you want to compete in college?

The U.S. college system offers a perfect balance between competitive sports and excellent academic programs, allowing me to grow as both an athlete and a student. I am excited by the opportunity to contribute to a college tennis team, where I can combine my love for the sport with my passion for teamwork. The flexibility of the U.S. educational system will also allow me to explore my interest in the medical field while developing my skills in tennis. The experience of studying and playing in such a supportive and diverse environment will prepare me for success in my future career and personal growth.

Tennis and Life goals?

My short-term goal is to join a collegiate tennis program where I can improve as a player, contribute to my team’s success, and explore my academic interests. I aspire to make the most of the opportunities offered in the U.S. by excelling both athletically and academically. Long term, I aim to build a career that combines my desire to help others with the discipline and perseverance I’ve developed through tennis. Whether on the court or in my professional life, I strive to embody the values of teamwork, dedication, and continuous improvement.
