Mirjana Lucic Croatian professional tennis player
0 commentsMirjana Lucic (born March 9, 1982, in Dortmund, West Germany) is a Croatian professional tennis player.She enjoyed a brief but promising career on the WTA Tour in the late 1990s, during which she set a few "youngest-ever" records and won one Grand Slam women's doubles title at the Australian Open in 1998 when she was only 15 years old, partnering Martina Hingis. Following a series of personal problems from 2000 onwards, she faded from the scene. She later had a first-round victory at the 2007 Indian Wells, and in 2010 her ranking returned back into the top 200 for the first time in several years, after spending time toiling on the ITF Women's Circuit.
