That's Nadia Lalami. She's 20 years old. She was born in Casablanca, Morocco. She's currently ranked #497. Prior to this week she had played four WTA matches in her career, all first round losses in Monaco.
She beat top seeded Rezza today to become the first Moroccan woman to ever get to a WTA quarterfinal. I don't think anyone was prepared for that.
But that's pretty badass. She deserves a Forty Deuce blog post. This is that post.
