My Take

CiCi Bellis is, to me, one of tennis's most poignant what-ifs. Beating a seeded player at the US Open at just fifteen, then climbing to world No. 35, she carried the weight of being American tennis's bright young hope. That injuries forced her into early retirement is the cruel arithmetic of the sport, but I refuse to read her story as a loss. To glimpse the top of the world that young is a rare gift. I find myself rooting for whatever she builds next, certain that the same steel that took her so high will serve her well beyond the court.

Overview

Catherine Cartan "CiCi" Bellis (born April 8, 1999) is an American former professional tennis player. In early 2018, she was the second youngest player in the top 100 of the WTA rankings. Bellis has a career-high ranking of world No. 35 by the Women's Tennis Association, which she achieved in August 2017.
