Yang Zi-jun, also known as Jessica Yang[1] (Chinese: 楊子君; Jyutping: joeng4zi2 gwan1, born February 8, 1990),[2] is a former professional tennis player from Hong Kong. A member of the Hong Kong Fed Cup team (last match in 2012), she has a career-high ranking of No. 22 in the world in juniors.[3]

Tennis career[edit]

Junior[edit]

She has reached the latter stages of many junior tournaments; she won the 2007 Girls Under-18 Toyota Open in Bangkok, Thailand, beating Khunpak Issara 6–3, 6–0.[4]

In the 2008 Wimbledon girls' singles, where she just missed out on being seeded,[5] she beat Anna Orlik of Belarus, 6–2, 6–1.[6] Her run was halted in the second round when she was beaten by junior world No. 3, Arantxa Rus, 6–3, 6–0.[7]

Professional years[edit]

Her best performance in a professional tournament is reaching the second round of various tournaments; the Bangkok tournament in 2006, where she lost to Thassha Vitayaviroj; at another tournament in Bangkok in 2006, as a qualifier, she lost to Lee Jin-a; in Jakarta in 2006 where she lost to Lavinia Tananta, and the 2008 tournament in Bulungan where she lost in the 2nd round to second seed Liang Chen.[8] All the tournaments are $10,000 tier tournaments, the lowest category of the ITF Women's Circuit.
