58 TORNEO AVVENIRE
14&U Super Category | Milan, ITA
Rafael Pagonis (GRE) and the Elizaveta Anikina (EST) have added another jewel to their crown of victories for 2025 with their victories in Milan.
The numbers are impressive: this is the second Super Category win for the Pagonis in 2025, fourth singles win of the year and 19th singles tournament win on tour, while the Anikina picks up her maiden Super Category win, sixth singles title of 2025 and 15th overall on the TEJT.
It was not the easiest of runs for the top boys’ seed who had to contend with several tough three set matches at the beginning of the tournament. His form improved as he progressed and the final against Laurens Drijver (NED) was his most decisive victory of the entire tournament, downing the Dutch player 6-0 6-3.
By contrast, Anikina breezed to the final, with straight sets wins and a few bagels served on the way to the final. In the decider, the tables were turned, however, as she faced the top seed Darina Matvejeva from Latvia who has her own fantastic tour record. In a topsy-turvy final, the Estonian came out on top with a 6-1 5-7 6-1 victory in their first-ever singles clash.
Matvejeva got some consolation by winning the doubles event 7-5 7-6 with Ofir Manhard (ISR) over Anikina & Sofia Tatu (GBR). The boys’ doubles titles went to the German pair of Luys Calin & Daniel Czarnecki who beat locals Bruno Giovanni Condorelli & Tyson Sebastian Grant 6-1 6-2in the final. The tournament was extremely active all week on social media, sharing many scores, photos and videos, such as:
