Former world No.31 Melanie Oudin ended her professional career today, due to a series of injuries and other health problems that have troubled her since the end of 2012, but instead of sharing photos of her best tennis moments, I’d like to feature her cute childhood photos in my Little Tennis Stars series.
Melanie started playing tennis at the age of seven, when grandmother introduced her to the sport, while at nine years of age she already knew that she wanted tennis to be her job when she grows up.
