The 2011s, a blue generation that sows promises to the Little As

When Mario Vukovic answered questions from the high school radio broadcasting in the Tarbes exhibition hall, he called Evan Giurescu to his side. The two teenagers, accomplices, debriefed their match and talked about their “rituals” to stay focused on the present moment. These two were never far from Samuel Dakessian and Thomas Grevoul this week at Petits As. Born in 2011, the quartet has been together for years and constitutes a solid and promising generation. There will be three of them (Grevoul lost to Vukovic on Thursday), Friday, in the quarter-finals of the unofficial under-14 world championship.
