Now in her thirties,
\nMihaela Buzarnescu was born in Bucharest and at the moment is WTA 30th-placed.
\nIn 2006, Buzarnescu and Raluca Olaru won the women’s doubles of the US Open’s
\njuniors version. However, a couple of shoulder injuries and two knee surgical
\noperations kept Buzarnescu away from the tennis court. Nonetheless, she put to
\ngood use her long break since in 2016 Mihaela defended her doctoral
\ndissertation in physical education. <\/p>\n

Buzarnescu made her
\ncomeback to the competition circuit in 2017 and in 2018 she won the first WTA
\ntournament in her career, that is the women’s doubles finals in the Strasbourg
\ntournament. Also in 2018 Mihaela Buzarnescu had a noteworthy run in Roland
\nGarros, when she reached as far as the round of 16, being defeated by US
\nchallenger Madison Keys. We recall that in the tournament’s round of 32
\nBuzarnescu had outperformed WTA number 4 Elina Svitolina. <\/p>\n

For Mihaela Buzarnescu, the
\nNottingham doubles final was the third such final she played in a women’s
\ndouble event. We recall that Buzarnescu won the Strasbourg finals jointly with
\nanother Romanian, Raluca Olaru. The third doubles finals she played was in the
\nPrague tournament, when she paired up with Lidia Morozova of the Belarus. The
\npair conceded defeat in that game. Buzarnescu has two more women’s finals in
\nhand this year; in Australia’ s Hobart tournament and in the Czech Republic in
