Wild Card Ekstrand Claims W35 Title in Jackson Mississippi; Brooksby Earns First ATP Title in Houston; Pegula Wins WTA 500 in Charleston; Auburn and Oklahoma Women Post Victories in SEC Top 10 Battles

The only three pro tournaments in the United States this week were all won by Americans, with both 17-year-old Monika Ekstrand and 24-year-old Jenson Brooksby reaching career milestones.



Ekstrand had a breakthrough tournament at the USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Jackson Mississippi. As a wild card entry, Ekstrand defeated the top two seeds at either end of the tournament, taking out No. 1 seed Cadence Brace(LSU) of Canada in the first round and No. 2 seed Ana Sofia Sanchez of Mexico 6-3, 6-4 in the final today. Ekstrand, whose best finish in a pro circuit tournament prior to this week came in February, when she reached the semifinals of a W15 in Mallorca, should receive a special exempt entry into the main draw of the Boca Raton Florida W35 this coming week; Ekstrand lives nearby in Delray Beach.

In most years, Ekstrand would be leading after the first week of the USTA's Roland Garros Wild Card Challenge after picking up 35 points this week, but Julieta Pareja's 98 for making the semifinals of the WTA 250 in Colombia will put her in the lead. 

While Pareja is in a good position after the first of four (correction: FIVE) weeks of tournaments that count for the race (Sachia Vickery won the RG wild card last year with 130 points), Jenson Brooksby has pretty much locked up the wild card with his title today at the ATP 250 in Houston.

Brooksby, who saved match point in three of his wins this week, one in qualifying, two in the main draw, won the battle of Kalamazoo 18s champions today, with the 2018 Kalamazoo champion beating 2015 champion Frances Tiafoe, the No. 2 seed, 6-4, 6-2 in the final. 

Out most of two years with injury and a suspension for failing to report his whereabouts for drug testing, Brooksby had lost in his three previous appearances in ATP finals, but he was much more consistent than Tiafoe, who fell short in the Houston title for the third straight year. 

Brooksby's 250 points are substantially more than the usual winner of the USTA's Australian Open, Roland Garros and US Open wild card challenges, who often has a point total in the 100-150 range. Now up to 172 in the ATP live rankings, Brooksby has also assured himself of a spot in Wimbledon qualifying, even if he doesn't continue to win as consistently as he did in Houston. 

Due to the inclement weather Saturday, the doubles final was played today, with former Tennessee All-American JP Smith of Australia and Fernando Romboli of Brazil taking the title. The unseeded 36-year-olds didn't drop a set in their run to the title, beating unseeded Federico Agustin Gomez(Louisville) of Argentina and Santiago Gonzalez of Mexico 6-1, 6-4 in the final. 

Another collegiate standout, two-time NCAA champion Erin Routliffe(Alabama), won a title today, with Routliffe partnering with Jelena Ostapenko of Latvia for the doubles title at the WTA 500 in Charleston South Carolina. The top-seeded Routliffe, who represents New Zealand, and Ostapenko defeated No. 3 seeds Desirae Krawczyk and Caroline Dolehide 6-4, 6-2 in the final. 

Top seed Jessica Pegula claimed the singles title, and with it, moved to No. 3 in the WTA rankings, surpassing Coco Gauff as the top-ranked American. Pegula came from 5-1 down in the second set to beat unseeded Sofia Kenin 6-3, 7-5.

Because the matches were played so late at night, I wasn't able to report on the run of University of Virginia freshman and 2024 US Open boys champion Rafael Jodar of Spain at the ATP Challenger 75 in Mexico. Jodar, who received main draw entry via the ATP Accelerator Program, reached the semifinals, falling to eventual champion Marc-Andrea Heusler of Switzerland, the No. 4 seed, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2. The 18-year-old, who is 14-1 at the top of Virginia's lineup since joining the Cavaliers in January, is now up to 688 in the ATP live rankings.

It was Senior Day for many programs across the country, with the final regular season home matches this weekend giving teams the chance to honor their seniors with only a week or two remaining in the regular season.

There were two Top 10 showdowns in the SEC today for the women, with the visitors getting both victories. No. 8 Oklahoma beat No. 10 LSU 4-1 in Baton Rouge and No. 9 Auburn defeated No. 6 Tennessee 4-2 in Knoxville.

LSU won the doubles point, but Kayla Cross, who has been named to the Canadian Billie Jean King Cup team for their trip to Japan this coming week, did not play singles after getting a victory in doubles. Oklahoma got singles wins at 2, 3, 4 and 5, all in straight sets, to secure the win.

Auburn took the doubles point from Tennessee, but lost at No. 1 singles, with Elza Tomase beating fall NCAA singles finalist DJ Bennett 6-0, 6-1. Yet Auburn found the three singles points they needed, getting wins and 2, 3 and 6 to earn the win.

Ekstrand Advances to W35 Final in Mississippi; Willwerth, Satterfield Receive Qualifying Wild Cards for Sarasota Challenger; Brooksby Reaches Final as Rain Disrupts Houston ATP 250; Pareja Makes Semis in Bogota WTA 250; Ole Miss's Beyers Announces Retirement

Wild card Monika Ekstrand has advanced to the final of this week's women's USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Jackson Mississippi. The 17-year-old Stanford recruit has now beaten three seeds after defeating No. 7 seed Alicia Herrero Linana(Baylor) of Spain 6-2, 5-7, 6-2 in today's semifinals. Ekstrand will play Ana Sofia Sanchez of Mexico for the title after the No. 2 seed defeated No. 3 seed Lea Ma(Georgia) 7-6(2), 6-2 in the semifinals. Sanchez has reached the final three weeks in a row now, with back-to-back appearances in the championship match at the W50s in the Dominican Republic last month.


The doubles title went to top seeds Herrero Linana and Maribella Zamarripa(Texas), who defeated No. 3 seeds Diletta Cherubini of Italy and Tori Osuigwe 6-2, 6-0 in the final.

The first of three US ATP Challenger 75s on green clay begins with qualifying for the Elizabeth Moore Sarasota Open Sunday. Australian Open boys finalist Ben Willwerth received a qualifying wild card, as did ITF J300 San Diego champion Jack Satterfield, who trains in nearby Tampa. The third qualifying wild card was awarded to Will Grant(Florida). 

Eliot Spizzirri(Texas) is the top seed in the main draw, with Federico Agustin Gomez(Louisville) of Argentina the No. 2 seed. Wild cards were given to Garrett Johns(Duke), Martin Damm and Tyler Zink(Georgia, Oklahoma State). Charlie Robertson, the Wake Forest freshman, received his spot in the main draw via the ATP/ITF junior accelerator program, which provides eight such entries to those who finish in the Top 10 of the ITF junior rankings.

Sixteen-year-old qualifier Julieta Pareja advanced to the semifinals of the WTA 250 in Bogota Colombia with a 7-6(5), 6-3 win over Leolia Jeanjean(Baylor, Arkansas, Lynn) of France last night, but did not get on the court for her semifinal match with qualifier Kataryzna Kawa of Poland until 8 p.m. due to rain. Kawa ended up winning it 7-5, 6-2 and will face No. 2 seed and defending champion Camila Osorio of Colombia, who posted a 6-4, 7-5 semifinal win over Julia Riera of Argentina before the rain arrived.

Top seed Jessica Pegula and unseeded Sofia Kenin will play for the WTA 500 title in Charleston South Carolina Sunday after Pegula defeated No. 9 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova of Russia 6-2, 2-6, 7-5 and Kenin received a retirement from Amanda Anisimova with Kenin leading 5-2 in the first set. 


The ATP 250 in Houston was plagued by rain today, with lightning and rain delays interrupting the first semifinal between qualifier Jenson Brooksby and top seed Tommy Paul, with Brooksby leading 7-6(5), 2-3 when play was stopped for three hours. Brooksby led 5-2 in the opening set, then trailed 5-2 in the tiebreaker, but managed to secure the first set. After play resumed tonight, Paul took the second set 6-3, then broke Brooksby at 5-all in the third but could not serve it out. In the tiebreaker Paul had a match point with Brooksby serving at 5-6, but missed a second serve return, and Brooksby made first serve and controlled that point to earn a match point of his own. Paul missed his first serve and Brooksby crushed a return winner on his second to advance to his first ATP final since the Atlanta 250 in 2022. It's the second 7-6 in the third win for Brooksby this week, as he defeated No. 3 seed Alejandro Tabilo of Chile 3-6, 6-4, 7-6(6) in the second round. He saved three match points in that tiebreaker, while also saving a match point in his first round qualifying match against Gomez.

He will play the winner of the semifinal between No. 2 seed Frances Tiafoe, who beat No. 5 seed Alex Michelsen 7-5, 6-1 last night, and No. 4 seed Brandon Nakashima. Nakashima and Brooksby have a long history in the juniors, with Brooksby dominating the head-to-head which includes the Kalamazoo 18s final in 2018.

In college tennis news, Ole Miss announced Friday that Mark Beyers, who has led the women's program in Oxford for 24 seasons, will retire at the end of this season. There will be no search for a replacement, with Grant Roberts, an assistant to Beyers for the past eight years, taking the head coaching position.

My Easter Bowl 16s and 18s Recap; Ekstrand Advances to Semis at W35 in Mississippi; ATP Houston's All-USA Semifinals; Top-ranked Georgia Women Survive Vanderbilt 4-3

The last of my four recaps of March's major junior events in Southern California is up today at the Tennis Recruiting Network, tracking the 16s and 18s divisions at the FILA Easter Bowl. If you didn't have time to read my daily posts, I think you'll find most of the pertinent information from these events in the wrap-ups. The 12s and 14s Easter Bowl article was posted Wednesday, and can be found here. My San Diego ITF J300 recap is also still available  without a TRN membership, but won't be for much longer.


Monika Ekstrand, who turns 18 next month, has played only ITF women's and USTA Pro Circuit events this year, and her success has been limited to a semifinal appearance at a W15 in Spain as a qualifier. Until this week's USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Mississippi, that is. Ekstrand defeated top seed Cadence Brace(LSU) of Canada in the first round, fellow wild card Alexis Nguyen in the second round and today beat No. 6 seed Mayu Crossley of Japan 6-4, 7-5. 

Ekstrand will face No. 7 seed Alicia Herrero Linana(Baylor) of Spain, who beat unseeded Mary Lewis(Arizona, Michigan State) 6-1, 6-0 in today's quarterfinals. 

In the bottom half, No. 3 seed Lea Ma(Georgia) will play No. 2 seed Ana Sofia Sanchez of Mexico after Ma ended the run of lucky loser Salma Ewing(USC, Texas A&M) 6-2, 6-0 and Sanchez beat unseeded Katarina Jokic(Georgia) of Serbia 6-3, 6-2.

For the first time since 1991, eight American men made the quarterfinals of the same ATP tournament: the 250 U.S. Men's Clay Court Championships in Houston. Three of the quarterfinals were played today, before the rain set in, with top seed Tommy Paul, qualifier Jenson Brooksby(Baylor) and No. 4 seed Brandon Nakashima(Virginia) reaching the semifinals. No. 2 seed Frances Tiafoe and No. 5 seed Alex Michelsen will decide the fourth semifinalist, if the weather clears yet tonight. 

Paul defeated qualifier Colton Smith, the University of Arizona senior, 6-1, 7-6(1), after Brooksby had gotten past Aleks Kovacevic 2-6, 6-3, 6-4.  Smith got off to a terrible start, trailing 4-0 in the first set, but played much better in the second set, pushing Paul all the way to a tiebreaker. But Smith could not get a lead, failing to capitalize on a 0-40 lead with Paul serving at 3-3 in the second, and Paul took control from the outset of the tiebreaker. Nakashima defeated Chris Eubanks(Georgia Tech) 6-4, 6-4 and will play the winner of the Tiafoe - Michelsen match.

The semifinals at the WTA 500 in Charleston South Carolina will feature three Americans, with No. 9 seed Ekaterina Alexandrova of Russia the sole international player in the final four. Top seed Jessica Pegula defeated No. 7 seed and defending champion Danielle Collins(Virginia) 1-6, 6-3, 6-0; unseeded Sofia Kenin beat No. 14 seed Anna Kalinskaya of Russia 6-4, 6-3 and No. 8 seed Amanda Anisimova took out hometown favorite Emma Navarro(Virginia), the No. 4 seed, 7-5, 7-6(1). Pegula plays Alexandrova and Kenin faces Anisimova Saturday.


The top-ranked University of Georgia women were pushed to the limit Friday night in Athens before coming away with a 4-3 win over No. 13 Vanderbilt that took three and a half hours to complete.

Georgia took the doubles point with a 7-5 victory at No. 1, after Vanderbilt won 6-1 at line 2 and Georgia won 6-1 at line 3. 

That proved to be the difference in the match, although many twists and turns were navigated before Georgia won three singles matches. 

The teams split first sets in singles, but only two players who won their first set won the match, with Bridget Stammel of Vanderbilt pulling the Commodores even at 1 with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Mel Reasco at line 3, and Aysegul Mert putting Georgia back out in front with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Sophia Webster at line 4. 

Georgia veterans Dasha Vidmanova and Anastasiia Lopata had both dropped their first sets at lines 1 and 2, while Vanderbilt's Trinetra Vijayakumar and Amy Stevens had lost their first sets at lines 5 and 6. But all four forced third sets and won them, with Vijayakumar defeating Guillermina Grant 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 and Stevens beating Sofia Rojas 2-6, 6-4, 6-4. With Vanderbilt up 3-2, Vidmanova and Lopata were both up breaks in their third sets, but with no-ad, those can disappear in a hurry and Lopata, up 4-1 lost her serve at 4-2 to give Valeria Ray a chance to pull even. But Lopata broke and held to make it 3-all, just as Vidmanova was beginning her service game at 5-4 against Celia-Belle Mohr. Vidmanova went up 40-15, but Mohr cracked a backhand pass for a winner to make it 40-30,with a deciding point looming. But Vidmanova made her first serve and Mohr made an unforced error, setting off a celebration, with Georgia extending their SEC record this season to 12-0.

ITF J300 Indian Wells Finals Videos; Teens Ekstrand and Crossley Reach Quarterfinals at W35 in Mississippi; Sarasota ATP Challenger Changes Venues; Features on Georgia, Pepperdine Coaches

Three weeks ago, the ITF J300 FILA International Championships at Indian Wells were drawing to close, with Julieta Pareja and Jagger Leach on their way to the titles. With Pareja into Friday's quarterfinals at the WTA 250 in Colombia, it occurred to me that the videos of her from the final would be especially timely, so I processed both the boys and girls videos from the finals today.



The quarterfinals of the women's USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Jackson Mississippi are set, with two top college recruits advancing to face each other for a place in the semifinals.

Seventeen-year-old Monika Ekstrand, who has committed to Stanford, had no letdown after beating top seed Cadence Brace(LSU) of Canada yesterday, securing a 6-2, 6-4 win over wild card Alexis Nguyen, Pareja's opponent in the above video.

Eighteen-year-old Mayu Crossley of Japan, who has committed to UCLA, has now made four quarterfinals at the W35 level and above after the No. 6 seed beat Alexis Blokhina(Stanford) 6-1, 6-3. Ekstrand reached her first ITF women's World Tennis Tour quarterfinal in February at a W15 in Mallorca. 

The ATP Challenger swing on the green clay begins next week in Sarasota Florida, the first of three 75s in the South. This article from Yahoo Sports vis the Sarasota Herald-Tribune has the details on the move from its location the past three years, Payne Park, to Sarasota Sports Club, where a 10-year agreement has been signed. The most significant news is that the new facility does not have ATP-quality lights, so all matches will be played during the day.  According to this entry update from dartsrankings.com, Wake Forest freshman Charlie Robertson will be using one of his ITF Junior Accelerator entries to compete in the main draw.

With Division I college tennis entering its final few weeks of regular season competition, I've run across two articles about women's coaches. Georgia's Drake Bernstein, who is in his second year after the retirement of Jeff Wallace, has had a dream start as head coach, with two NCAA individual titles (2024 spring doubles, 2024 fall singles), an appearance in the 2024 team final, an ITA Team Indoor title in February, and, since then, the top ranking in country. The Red & Black tracks Bernstein's Georgia roots back to his years playing for the Bulldogs and his tenure as the associate head coach under Wallace here.

Pepperdine's Tassilo Schmid has had a dramatically different path to his position. An assistant for the men's team for seven years, Schmid was named interim head coach for the women when Pere Nilsson left last fall for the University of Florida's women's head coaching job.  Graphic provides this review of Schmid's coaching career and a look at his coaching philosophy.

Easter Bowl 12s and 14s Recap; USTA Selects Tracy Davies as First General Manager of USA Tennis; Ekstrand Beats Top Seed Brace at W35 in Mississippi; Pareja and Smith Reach WTA, ATP Quarterfinals

I'll have a lot more content coming from last month's three weeks covering major junior events in Southern California, with videos from all finals at the ITF J300 Indian Wells, ITF J300 San Diego and FILA Easter Bowl, as well as a couple of photo galleries for Tennis Recruiting Network. That will be later this month, once I've completed my recaps from the Easter Bowl and the March Aces column for Tennis Recruiting Network. The first recap was published today, with my summary of the 12s and 14s Easter Bowl Championships. Congratulations to all those competing on the final day, who handled a difficult day with few complaints and impressive competitive performances.

The USTA began a search for a new position it created last fall, when General Manager of Player Development Martin Blackman left after 10 years heading Player Development. That new position, General Manager of USA Tennis, was filled today, with long-time USTA administrator Tracy Davies named to "oversee an expanded high performance division that joins Player Development, Pro Circuit, Collegiate, Junior Competition, and International Team Events into a single cohesive department."

I don't know Davies, but am optimistic that her USTA experience and her background as a former collegiate player will assist in what is uncharted territory for the organization in bringing all the various entities under one person's direction.  

Blackman discussed with me back in January what the new USA Tennis General Manager's role might be, which can be found at this TRN article. Let's hope you all see Davies in your sections this summer.

The complete release, with comments from Davies, USTA CEO Lew Sherr, USTA President and Board Chair Brian Vahaly and Billie Jean King Cup captain Lindsay Davenport can be found at usta.com.

Teenagers had great success today at the women's USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Jackson Mississippi, with Stanford recruit Monika Ekstrand, a 17-year-old wild card, taking out top seed Cadence Brace of Canada, a 20-year-old LSU freshman, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 in first round action.

Ekstrand will play wild card Alexis Nguyen, last month's ITF J300 Indian Wells finalist, who beat qualifier Kolie Allen(Ohio State) 6-1, 6-3.

Fifteen-year-old qualifier Kristina Liutova of Russia defeated No. 5 seed Martina Okalova(Tulsa) of Slovakia 6-1, 6-3 and will face 2019 NCAA singles finalist Katarina Jokic(Georgia) of Serbia. 

No. 8 Tori Osuigwe, a North Carolina State signee, defeated fellow 18-year-old Mia Yamakita, a qualifier, 5-7, 6-4, 6-2 to advance against lucky loser Salma Ewing(USC, Texas A&M), who beat qualifier Marcella Cruz(Vanderbilt, Wake Forest) 6-4, 6-1.

University of Arizona senior Colton Smith has played a grand total of two ATP events, and he has already reached his first quarterfinal at the ATP 250 in Houston. Qualifier Smith, the 22-year-old from Washington, defeated wild card Ethan Quinn(Georgia) 6-3, 6-4, on a surface he never plays on in college and is playing on for the first time this week in the pros.

Now up to 166 in the live rankings, Smith is banking valuable points in the USTA's Roland Garros Wild Card Challenge; he will face the winner of tonight's match between top seed Tommy Paul and wild card Cristian Garin of Chile in the quarterfinals. 

Another qualifier who got in via a wild card and is now through to the quarterfinals is 16-year-old Californian Julieta Pareja at the WTA 250 in Colombia. There's no question she had a dream draw, facing a local wild card in the first round and a lucky loser in the second, but she's seized the opportunity she was handed. The ITF J300 Indian Wells champion defeated Patricia Tig of Romania 6-3, 7-6(3) and won't face a seed in the quarterfinals. Her opponent will be the winner of tonight's match between Leolia Jeanjean(Baylor, Arkansas, Lynn) and Selena Janicijevic, both of France.

USTA Women's Pro Circuit Returns at W35 in Mississippi; Pareja and Jovic Win First Round Matches at WTA in Colombia; Smith Advances at ATP Houston; Georgia Women, Wake Forest Men Stay No. 1 in Latest ITA Rankings

After four weeks with nothing on the USTA women's Pro Circuit calendar, competition resumes this week on green clay at the W35 in Jackson Mississippi, the first week of the USTA's Roland Garros Wild Card Challenge.  Qualifying concluded today, with two juniors, Vanderbilt recruit Mia Yamakita and 15-year-old Kristina Liutova of Russia, advancing to the main draw.

Yamakita defeated No. 7 seed Dilana Rsovac of Australia 6-0, 6-2 in the final round of qualifying, while No. 9 seed Liutova beat former USC All-American Salma Ewing, the No. 5 seed, 6-0, 7-5 to qualify. Other Americans reaching the main draw are Kolie Allen(Ohio State) and Marcella Cruz(Vanderbilt, Wake Forest).

The top seed in the main draw is LSU freshman Cadence Brace of Canada, with Ana Sofia Sanchez of Mexico the No. 2 seed. Wild cards were awarded to ITF J300 Indian Wells finalist Alexis Nguyen, Stanford recruit Monika Ekstrand, Mississippi high school sophomore Briley Rhoden and University of Texas recruit Elizabeth Ionescu. Rhoden lost her first round match today; the other three play their opening matches Wednesday, with Ekstrand drawing Brace.

Julieta Pareja and Iva Jovic, both of whom have won ITF Junior Billie Jean King Cup titles in the past two years, are playing the WTA 250 in Bogota Colombia this week and both have won their opening matches. The 16-year-old Pareja, who won the ITF J300 in Indian Wells last month then got through the qualifying as a wild card in Bogota, won her first WTA main draw match tonight, beating Colombian wild card  Maria Jose Sanchez Uribe 6-1, 6-1. She will play lucky loser Patricia Tig of Romania next, after the 30-year-old Tig defeated No. 4 seed Emiliana Arango of Colombia 6-3, 6-3.

The 17-year-old Jovic, who has played the women's US Open, Australian Open and BNP Paribas Open in the past seven months, winning a round in all three, made her debut below the 1000 level today, beating No. 3 seed Alycia Parks 6-1, 6-4. These results will count toward the Roland Garros Wild Card Challenge, as do any events on clay at the W35 level and above. Jovic won last fall's Australian Open Wild Card Challenge.

At the ATP 250 in Houston, Arizona senior Colton Smith qualified for the main draw after receiving a wild card and today earned his second ATP main draw victory, beating James Duckworth of Australia 6-2, 6-2. Smith will face 2023 NCAA champion Ethan Quinn(Georgia), a wild card, who beat No. 6 seed Jordan Thompson of Australia 4-6, 6-4, 6-3. It's Quinn's first ATP Top 40 win.

I didn't have time to post last week's ITA Division I Team rankings, but there haven't been many changes the past several weeks, with the Georgia women, with just one loss this season, and the Wake Forest men, who are undefeated, continuing at No. 1. The top spots in singles and doubles have also been unchanged for several weeks. Below are the rankings released today; click on the headings to go to the full ITA rankings.
