Licensed in Gueugnon, the young Flavie, who discovered tennis in Le Creusot and who lives in Saint-Sernin du Bois, had not played a tournament since 2020. She gave a demonstration on Sunday afternoon.
“The last tournament I played was at Le Creusot, 2020, just before confinement… So obviously it’s a great pleasure to have won here at Le Creusot,” says Flavie Acier. We feel the pleasure in her voice, as we felt her happy on the court on Sunday afternoon. She won easily in two sets, but above all she played attractive tennis. Not stereotypical. She alternated her game and her shots a lot and Louane Picot, also licensed at Gueugnon, experienced a lot of difficulty.
Flavie Acier knows Le Creusot well, since it was at the Le Creusot Tennis Club that she studied. Living in Saint-Sernin du Bois, she then took charge of the Chalon club, before joining that of Gueugnon.
Ranked 15, she showed a lot of potential, even if Tennis is currently taking a bit of a back seat… “I’m studying physiotherapy in Vichy. I will normally graduate in July,” she says.
Since the end of COVID, with her student status, Flavie Acier had only played championship matches. She therefore made a winning return to the tournament at Le Creusot. “I'm going to try to do other tournaments, but with studies it's not easy,” assures Flavie who, every weekend, returns to her parents in Saint-Sernin du Bois. “I need to find my family. It’s important for my balance.” This is probably also why the head and legs are doing very well. She demonstrated it on this first Sunday in November.
