You have probably heard of the young, powerful American star, Madison Keys, but here are some fun facts that you may not know!<\/p>\n

\"madison_keys\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1. She won her WTA debut match…<\/h3>\n

…at 14 years old! She knocked off the 81st ranked player in the world, and became the 7th youngest winner of a WTA level match in the history of the game.\u00a0Wow!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. She (kind of) beat Serena when she was 14 years old!<\/h3>\n

She beat Serena 5-1 in a WTT match in 2009. Serena remembered the match saying,\u00a0“I think she destroyed me. I just remember her hitting forehand winners, she was hitting so hard. She was so good at that age. It’s good to see her still doing well.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. She ADORES her fans<\/h3>\n

\u201cI have been in those seats and I know what it\u2019s like to be out there watching, be super excited, stay after a match and want an autograph and things like that. So for me, I want to be one of those people that can sign as many autographs as I can, take as many pictures as I can, because they\u2019re part of the reason why I\u2019m here. They\u2019re the people that stay out there late and they watch my matches and cheer me on. Me taking five minutes out of my day to try to get to everyone, do as much as I can, it\u2019s not that hard for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. She wants to be a chef after she retires from tennis<\/h3>\n

She will certainly have the bank account to take as many cooking classes as she wants!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. She was inspired to play by Venus Williams<\/h3>\n

Pretty good role model, eh? Her game is very similar to Venus’ with booming groundstrokes. Neither player cares much for long points, which makes for some very entertaining tennis.<\/p>\n
