Hi. My name is Palma Kiraly. I will write here a blog on every tournements/days when I play. I'm very happy to join Junior Tour and to play with you. I hope that I can play in Pro Tour after 2-3 years and I can be World no. 1 in World Rank one day in the near future.
I'm 16 years old now, so I have 2 years in Juniors.

I like play doubles so much. My partner will be other Hungarian (on 33 of my 35 torunements in season) Timea Babos who is the great future of Hungary. She is only 14 years old and she is 3rd on Rank of Girls U14.

I hope this will be a great season for me and I can win at least 1 tournement in single and at least 5-6 tournements in double....

So, see-you in Australian G1 event next week!:wavey:

Hi!

:sad: I losted in 3-set-TB against Shayna...I was very tired at the end of derby, after 2 and a half hours. That's why I losted 3-set-TB 7-1...
It doesn't matter because I tell U the truth, I loke better doubles...
We are 3rd seeds with Timi, so we have bye in 1st Round again... At least I can play in a QF with Timi...
Next week will be Junior Australian Open in Melbourne! I can see the play of the "bigs": Myskina, Dementieva, etc. It will be amazing, I think. But I want a good result at least in doubles...
But before Junior GS, I must to win doubles here with Timi, so I must to work hard for it...

GL2 Timi tomorrow for her 1st singles match in 2nd Round as 4th seed...
:wavey:

(7) Shayna McDowell (AUS) def. Palma Kiraly (HUN) 2-6 6-2 7-6(1)

Hi!

We will play on Australian Open! Tha 1st junior Slam of the Season1! :woohoo:

In doubles, we play together with Timi again... We are a little bit unlucky with SFs. We can't win there. But maybe in Melbourne we will play in Final at least...:)

I'm not affraid of singles because I like to win many matches in doubles. I love doubles so much! :hearts: We want to win a Slam at least with Timi.

My hotel's room is very good. In my hotel is a training-room and a tennis-court too. So I can training with myí coach and with Timi too. :)

GL2every1 in Melbourne!:)
