In EYOF Tbilisi 2015, Slovenia’s duo of Kaja Juvan and Nika Radisic earned the gold medal. In the finals, Slovenia’s unseeded duo, defeated Andrea Priscariu and Selma Cadar of Romania in a very close match 4:6 6:3 7:5.

“We are very happy that our successful and solid duo was formed. From the very beginning, the gold medal was a main objective of all tennis players involved. I am happy that together we succeeded in earning the gold medal” said Juvan.

The Russian duo of Taisiya Pachkaleva and Sofya Lansere faced Martina Waltert and Katherina Kueng of Switzerland for the bronze medal. The Swiss duo won the match with 6:4 6:2.
