Summoned at 11 a.m. on court 7 at Melbourne Park, Moses Kouamé made a successful debut at the Australian Junior Open. The Habs, seeded n°13, dismissed the Romanian Alejandro Mateo Berge Nourescu – coached by Andrei Pavel – in two sets (6-2, 7-5). Led 5-2 in the second set, the protégé of Yoann Lemée never panicked and lined up five games in a row. In the next round, he will attack the Italian Jacopo Vasami, whom he has just beaten at Traralgon. Remember that Moïse Kouamé was born in 2009 when the tournament was open to 2007.
In the women’s table, Eleejah Annoyed was eliminated by a player from the qualifications, the Russian Yuliya Perapekhina. Finalist of the Traralgon preparatory tournament, Knesia Efremova is scheduled for this Monday afternoon against the Australian Renne Alame. Daphnée Mpetshi Perricard et Margot Phathala – results of the qualifiers – will begin on Tuesday.
