Two women's semi-finals, a mixed doubles title and wins over three national number ones.

Tatiana started the month at the Mornington Peninsula events in Australia, playing open women's tournaments. She reached two semi-finals in the women's singles, and teamed up with Sebastian to win the mixed doubles.

From there it was a quick turnaround to Shymkent, Kazakhstan, for the ATF 12U Intercontinental Team Competition with Team New Zealand and Lavie coach Tabi. Lavie juniors Claudia Shi and Teo Serlachius-Williams were also in the New Zealand teams.

Results

• Tatiana beat the number one from Mexico, twice
• Tatiana beat the number one from Chinese Taipei
• Tatiana beat the number one from the Czech Republic, who sits top of Europe on the UTR rankings
• The New Zealand girls went out in the quarterfinals to Team Europe

It is the second year running a Lavie player has made this team, after Sara Shimotomai in 2025.

What's next

Some rest and recovery, interclub in Auckland through November, then the New Zealand Nationals from 5 December, where Tatiana plays the 16s and then the 14s. Come down and support if you're around.
