It looks like his end of year training camp with world number one Rafael Nadal is already paying dividends. Young Croatian tennis star Borna Ćorić (17) has won the $10,000 ITF tournament in Istanbul on Saturday…
Ćorić, who this year won the US Open Junior title, beat Turk Baris Erguden 6:4, 3:6, 6:3 in the final to claim his 5th ITF title in his career. Ćorić, who now heads down under to prepare for the Australian Open, will see his world ranking now fall below 320. Croatian legend Goran Ivanišević predicts big things from the teenager.
