Koharu Nishikawa has helped the Australian Billie Jean King Cup junior team finish an excellent 6th place at the World team finals in Cordoba, Spain.

The Australian team made up of Emerson Jones, Tahlia Kokkinis and Nishikawa performed admirably in the prestigious 16 and under teams event, which was won by the USA.

One of Australia’s most promising juniors, the 14 year old has gained invaluable experience competing on the international stage.

As well as the BJKC Cup, Koharu represented Australia earlier in the year at the 14 and under World teams event.

After an outstanding year of exposure to international tennis, "Koko" will aim for two more major junior events in January, the J300 Traralgon ITF and then the junior Australian Open.

We respectfully acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club stands today the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation and pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
