I stopped playing BT for a while because I had to work, and I was a bartender in a beach bar.
I am a perfectionist, and if I could, I would train 24 hours a day
I was a ski talent when I was younger. I stopped because I was a child and I wanted to be closer to my mom (she didn’t live close to the mountains).

Questions to Ninny
What is your favorite tournament?
Aruba … because of the location and the atmosphere 🤩
How & why did you start playing Beach Tennis?
I started playing BT at the beach with my dad’s friend. In those years I played volleyball and during the summer we had the break and I used to play BT. Because I loved to play BT, I stopped with volleyball.
What is your favorite sport besides Beach Tennis?
Soccer! My dream was to become a soccer player ⚽
Do you have any role models in the sport world?
Rafael Nadal! He is a fighter. He also fought offside the court for his fitness, forcing his aching knees to play through the pain. And he changed his game style to become a player for all surfaces.
What is the goal in your Beach Tennis career?
I want to train and improve every day, and the result is a consequence!
