Canada's Wozniak wants to finish junior tennis career with a Grand Slam (CP)

    Yahoo! News - Canada's Wozniak wants to finish junior tennis career with a Grand Slam
    Instead of yet another story about Donald Young, how about one on Aleksandra Wozniak of Canada, who shared the winner's platform with him at the Casablanca Cup, and did him one better by winning the girls doubles title too?

    Now ranked third in the world after reaching the semifinals in Australia, Wozniak is looking for a tennis angel. The details in this story aren't unusual, but in these cases, I always find myself asking where is the (insert country name here) Tennis Federation and why aren't they helping this junior? I realize they can't help everyone, but once a player wins a Grade A event and has reached the Top Five in the world, I've got to believe it makes her one of the best juniors in Canada. If she's gotten to her current level training in Quebec with her father as her coach, you'd expect a semester at a tennis academy in Florida to be worth the cost of the tuition.

    Though "no money" is often not the sum total of reasons a junior fails, it shouldn't even be in the equation in developed countries with tennis federations and Olympic sponsors. Am I missing something here?
