Ysidora Tobing claims her first ever victory in Junior Grand Slam


The only Indonesian in the main draw of "US Open Junior Tennis Championships 2009" Grace Sari Ysidora Tobing tasted her first ever victory in only her third Grand Slam appearance on Tuesday (September 8, 2009) in Flushing Meadow, New York, USA. She did not play until the third day of this tourney since her opponent Mexican Alejandra Granillo still played in the final of 10K in Celeya, Gto, Mexico on Sunday (September 6, 2009). 18 years old Granillo (born June 6, 1991) lost in this 10K final and this time in round 64 of Junior US Open, it was Ysidora Tobing's turn to beat her 6-4, 6-2 in 76 minutes.

Ysidora Tobing had played French Open and Wimbledon this past summer for the very first time and in both Grand Slams she lost in the opening round. In her opening match, Ysidora Tobing started well and forced service game till 2-2. Then Ysidora Tobing broke Granillo's serve to lead 3-2. A Bandung resident, Ysidora Tobing did not waste her time to widen the gap and advanced 4-2. But more experienced Granillo (currently ranked at ITF 111) fought back to level it 4-4. From then on Ysidora Tobing found her momentum back to break her Mexican opponent and she resumed her lead 5-4. Eventually Ysidora Tobing served for the set and she closed it out 6-4.

In second set, Indonesia's junior number two Ysidora Tobing began her duel by breaking Granillo's serve and she earned her lead all the way 2-0, 2-1, 3-1, 3-2, 4-2, 5-2 and she finished it with love game with 6-2 victory.
