Brave Vucic Bows Out in
Semifinals
Ilija
Vucic finally ran out of steam after
a brave run to the semifinals of the
15th International Junior Tournament
in Citta' Di Prato, Italy.
 Ilija, who began the week just
outside the Top 100 of the junior
rankings, stormed past Tomislav
Jotovski and Adrien Puget in the
first couple of rounds, but then ran
into Ignacio Marire of Argentina in
the quarterfinals.
The pair traded through three
pulsating sets before Ilika
eventually prevailed 4-6, 6-3,
7-6(7).
Attempting to rebound for the
semifinals proved difficult,
however, and the Monte Carlo Tennis
Academy player was comfortably
beaten 6-2, 6-0 by eventual
champion, Enric Fioravante of Italy.
Ilija will now move onto the 29th
International Junior Tournament "Citta'
Di Santa Croce" 2007 as he continues
his rise up the junior rankings.
