Brenda Fruhvirtová (born 2 April 2007) is a Czech tennis player.[1]

Fruhvirtová has a career-high ITF Junior ranking of world No. 4, achieved on 13 December 2021.[2]

She made her WTA Tour debut at the 2022 Abierto Zapopan, after qualifying for the main draw.[3]

Early life and background

Born in the Czech Republic, Brenda is the younger sister of fellow professional tennis player Linda Fruhvirtová.[4] The Fruhvirtová sisters have been training at the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy in Southern France since 2017, and are recipients of the Patrick Mouratoglou foundation.

Junior career

In 2018, Fruhvirtová won the U12 Eddie Herr tournament. She was ten years old when she won the title.[5]

In 2019, Brenda and her sister Linda Fruhvirtová won the Les Petits As doubles title together with Linda also winning the singles title; one year later Brenda won the singles title. The Fruhvirtová sisters became the first members of the same family to win the title two years in a row.[6]

In July 2020, Fruhvirtová defeated WTA No. 54, Kateřina Siniaková, during an exhibition tournament in the Czech Republic.[7] A few weeks later, Fruhvirtová was invited to participate in the Ultimate Tennis Showdown (UTS) at the Mouratoglou Academy. She was one of the four players to compete in the first women's edition UTS. She lost to Alizé Cornet in the UTS format.[8]

In September 2020, Brenda received a wildcard by the French Tennis Federation to compete in the girls' singles competition at the 2020 French Open. She was the youngest player to play in the event (13 years old).

Professional career

2021: Pro debut

Brenda made her professional debut at the WTA 125 tournament in Seoul in December, where she won a round to earn her a WTA ranking.

2022: Eight ITF titles, Top 200, WTA debut

At 14 years, 10 months and four days, Fruhvirtová became the youngest ITF Tour champion, claiming her first title at the $25k Tucuman in Argentina, since American Claire Liu, then 14 years, 9 months old, won a $10k event in Orlando in 2015.[9] She won a second title in Tucuman the following week. Fruhvirtová was awarded a wildcard into the Abierto Zapopan qualifying draw; she defeated former world No. 5, Sara Errani, and Leonie Küng to reach the main draw and make her WTA Tour debut,[10] where she lost in straight sets to the sixth seed and former world No. 3, Sloane Stephens.[11]
