On January 11th, Bulgarian Teen Sesil Karatancheva was once again eligible by the ITF for competition . Wasting no time to get back on track, she entered a $25k ITF tournament in Arizona and won 3 matches (in a day!!) to qualify into the main draw. She won the tournament and entered another 25k tournament in La Quinta, California the following week, and once again won 3 matches to qualify for the tournament and eventually going onto win as well. After only 2 weeks back in tennis with a 16-0 record already , she has recieved legal pressure from the Bulgarian Sports Federation for not reporting to national duty for Bulgaria in their Fed Cup tie against Hungary . That would have been heroic of her to have played and won the tie for her nation but it is understandable that she needed to re gain rankings and earnings.
