Peyton gave an excellent interview right after the QFs. Talked about her pre college experiences (wished she could have gone to high school), what improvements she has made to her game, Joffe helping her mental games, favorite Austin restaurants...

Even if she turns pro, I think Texas is in good hands.

Additionally, the Big 12 Player of the Year from OK State is transferring. One of Iowa State's player is doing an inter conference transfer to WVU. And Baylor is also losing a player to the transfer portal.

It's been less than one month but some impressive results on the summer circuit-

Kylie beat Montserrat Gonzalez (former top 200 player)

Lulu beat Whitney Osuigwe (formerly ranked 105, still ranked in the 200s)

Charlotte beat two former All Americans, Shapatava (former top 200) and the number one recruit in this year's class.

Some of these opponents haven't had impressive results recently; it's still a feat to beat these pro players who have made Grand Slam Main Draws before

If these results get TOO impressive, then Texas may be at risk for half the team turning pro early lol

Also former player Sarah Lancaster is doing track as an amateur and has qualified for the Olympic Trials!

Lancaster was your essential player at the bottom of the lineup. I remember her being a backboard when she played.

Cool story.  Thanks for sharing it.

Lulu fell a bit short today in the finals of the 25K in Spain. Lost to her former compatriot Masarova (former number 2 junior in the world).

Here's Lulu's semifinal match against Lazaro (two time All American when she played in the NCAAs). Lulu beat her convincingly 2 and 2.

Turati won the tournament in Austria

2021-2022 schedule is out! Judging by the fact that there's so many pro tournaments on the schedule in the fall, my guess is that Peyton and Lulu will come back for at least the fall semester and then determine after that whether or not to go pro
