Early and personal life

[edit]

Tímea Babos was born on 10 May 1993 to mother Zsuzsanna and father Csaba inSopron, Hungary. She has an older sister.[1] Coming from a sporty family, Babos decided to follow her family tradition. Her father is a coach at the tennis club her family owns in Sopron, while her mother is a housewife. Her sister was also a very good player and won NCAA titles when studying at Berkeley in the United States.[2] She was originally a swimmer and was national champion in Hungary, but during that time she looked differently at swimming, finding it quite boring and as hard work, so she started to come with her sister to tennis practice at the age of 8. Originally, she started playing tennis just for fun, but then her dad saw her talent, so she started to concentrate more on it and eventually stopped swimming.[2]

She loved watching her sister's workouts with their father, when she was eight and her sister 16, so her parents signed her up for a class at a local club and after a few months, she was accepted into local events. Her breakthrough came at the age of nine, where after leading the u12 club team to four qualification round victories, she qualified for the u12 National Championships. A few weeks later, she won her first Hungarian National Championship title.[3] At 15, she travelled to theUnited Kingdom to practice owing to her homeland's lack of sufficient facilities. One of the opportunities was practice on hardcourts; her country mostly has clay courts. Two years after her arrival in England, she got a good sponsorship deal, which meant she could return and train inBudapest.[2][4]

Babos resides in her birthtownSopron in Hungary.[5] Her nickname on tour is 'Babosdook', given to her by doubles partner Kristina Mladenovic as she is a big fan of horror films. The nickname is a reference to the filmThe Babadook.[6] Tímea Babos has become the first Hungarian female tennis player to reach the world number one spot.[7] She enjoyed watchingElena Dementieva growing up. Her comment stated:

I really liked her style of play and, although she never won a Grand Slam, she was always at or near the top and also won the Olympics. She didn't seem arrogant and was always nice to the junior players at Grand Slams. Despite being so successful she seemed to be a nice person. — Babos, on Dementieva[2]

In an interview with Mancunian Matters, she noted that she is supporter ofManchester United, as well as her whole family.[4]

[edit]
Babos hitting a forehand

Babos has an aggressive style of play with a good mix of shots. During time she developed her game and now she is capable of throwing some nice variations withslices anddrop-shots, as well as using her doubles skills to take the net often, trying to reachwinners as much as possible.[2][90] Her father taught her not to be aggressive player nor defensive but neutral one, where she can hit slice and drop shots sometimes. Because of her height and power, her biggest strength is herserve, which really helps when she is playing on faster courts likegrass orindoorhard.[2] She grew up playing onclay.[90]
