Jelena Dokic
Jelena Dokic (Author)
Jelena Dokic was a prodigious tennis player who made the quarter-finals of Wimbledon at the age of just 16. She was heralded as Australia’s greatest tennis hope since Evonne Goolagong, possessing exceptional skills, a steely nerve, and an unrivalled fight on the court.
At 17, she reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon. By September 2000, she became an Olympian, finishing fourth at the Sydney Games. By 18, she was in the world’s top 10, and by 19, she was world No. 4, holding her own against Monica Seles, Martina Hingis, and Lindsay Davenport. She was also world No. 9 in doubles.
Dokic went on to win her first WTA singles title at the Rome Masters in May 2001 and was a French Open doubles finalist the same year. A shoulder and wrist injury prematurely ended her tennis career in 2013. One of the only female players to have won a WTA title on all four surfaces, Jelena now spends her time mentoring young players, sharing her vast knowledge. Her other career highlights include making her Fed Cup debut at 15 – the youngest player ever – and winning both matches, as well as winning the Hopman Cup with Mark Philippoussis at 15.
In addition to mentoring, she also enjoys media work, having served as a commentator on both Fox Sports News and Channel Seven’s tennis coverage. She currently lives in Melbourne.
