The countdown has begun, and the official entry list is now confirmed. Players from 36 different nations will travel to Stockholm to compete for the prestigious titles of Kungens Kanna and Drottningens Pris. The international entry list promises a week of top class junior tennis, with several players ranked among Europe’s top 20 in the under 14 category on both the boys and girls sides.
On the boys side, Anastasis Mosaikos of Cyprus is the top seed and currently holds the number one position in the Tennis Europe Junior Tour Under 14 rankings, underlining the high level of competition expected in Stockholm. Another exciting name in the draw is Richard Mitchell of Switzerland, who recently impressed on the junior circuit by advancing all the way to the final of the Super Category tournament Petits As as a qualifier. Jonas Waelti from Switzerland has also shown consistency at the highest level, reaching the semifinals of Petits As in France.
On the girls side, Romania’s Eva Maria Bulai is the top seed and currently ranked number three in Europe in the Under 14 category. She will be one of the leading contenders for the title. Close behind is Arina Fomina, another strong challenger who claimed four Tennis Europe Under 14 titles last year and has established herself as a formidable competitor.
Several Swedish players will also take part in this year’s tournament, including Vega Bontin, Lova Aronsson, Stephani Degac, Enzo Brito, Carl Bagger and Vincent Berta, all of whom represented Sweden in the Winter Cups qualification. The girls reached the final stages after strong performances in qualifying, while the boys narrowly missed out on a place in the final stages following closely contested matches. These are just a few of the Swedish players who will compete.
The draw features many talented and ambitious players ready to compete for the titles. Spectators at the Royal Tennis Hall can look forward to an inspiring week filled with high quality tennis and outstanding entertainment at the very highest junior level.
The Royal Tennis Hall and its members are ready to welcome the players and their accompanying parties to Stockholm.
