Ten Longhorns with a Lil'Talent: A guide to the top 10 Texas athletes to watch in 2018-19 | Hookem.com
Bianca and Anna Turati, women’s tennis
Texas’ opulent new tennis center was built to attract elite players. Not just from Texas, mind you. From all over. Turati and her twin sister, Anna, were born in Como, Italy, but like the bumper sticker says, they got here as fast as they could. To the severe misfortune of their opponents, we’re afraid.
Bianca Turati is a staggering 45-11 as a singles player over the last two seasons. She ascended to the No. 1 ITA ranking in February, becoming the first Longhorn to get there since 1995. She was 16-2 as UT’s No. 1 in team competition last season. Not to be outdone, Anna Turati was 15-1 as the team’s No. 2 player. They’re juniors.
