Birthplace: Constanta, Romania5' 6" (1.68 m)Right Handed, Two-Handed BackhandTurned Pro 2016

Romanian Simona Halep started playing tennis at the age of four. Having been born and raised in a family that's obsessed with football, she was no stranger to athletics. She turned pro in 2006, and in 2013 won her first 6 WTA Singles titles being named the WTA’s Most Improved Player. She continued to dominate from there reaching the French Open Women's Singles final in 2014 & 2017 as well as the Australian Open Women's Singles final in 2018. She broke through her slump in 2018 to capture her first Grand Slam Singles title at the French Open and second title at the 2019 Wimbledon Championships. Halep is self-admittedly an aggressive baseliner, with great court coverage and counter punching power. She also enjoys music, movies, and handball. Her favorite city is Paris, her favorite tournament is Roland Garros, and her idols are Justin Henin as well as Roger Federer.
