Tahlia Kokkinis - ITF Junior / WTA Tennis Player

QLD
Australia

Passion, commitment and a strong disposition for continuous learning and improvement.

My name is Tahlia Kokkinis, and I am a professional 16-year-old WTA player from Australia. I have been fortunate to learn the sport of tennis alongside my father from a young age, fostering a deep appreciation and connection to the sport. Tennis has taken me on an extraordinary journey, where I have had the opportunity to experience, learn and train in several elite tennis academies throughout the world.

I have continually been one of the top players in Australia, throughout my Junior career. I have challenged myself on a global stage in most of the world reputed tournaments. I have been honoured in representing Australia throughout my Junior career, and last year led my team to the 16’s Junior Billie Jean Cup finals.

I’m seeking the opportunity to work smart and hard in a collaborative, nurturing environment with a coach that is experienced and willing to care and support my journey….

Starting March 2025

  1. Apart from my athletic achievements, I’m often described as having a charismatic and strong personality, coupled with a social nature. I love being in nature and find it quite therapeutic. Through my tennis journey, I believe that I can also contribute to various social justice platforms such as animal welfare projects, as I have a strong love and connection with animals.

Testimonial

Tahlia Kokkinis is one of the rising stars in Australian tennis having worked with her over the past few months, I have found Tahlia to be an extremely hard worker and ultra respectful of my time and efforts. My name is Beti Sekulovski and I am a Tennis Australia High Performance Qualified coach where I was previously employed by Tennis Australia for almost 6 years in the National Academy leading the girls' space aged 15-18 years of age in Victoria. I'm currently working with Tahlia during her pre season training leading into this years AO. Currently ranked in Australia top 2 in juniors. She represented Australia in the Billie Jean King Cup in the juniors, in addition to this Tahlia is a promising athlete with plenty of potential, hard working attributes and dedication. A curious athlete who is inquisitive about her tennis journey and is invested in her path and goals. Tahlia has also qualified for almost every pro tour both overseas and nationally, winning rounds competing at a high level along with competitive scorelines against opponents who have come close to winning the event. Tahlia has also demonstrated she has the tennis level that enables her to compete at this standard and beyond.

Testimonial

Over the past year I have witnessed Tahlias exceptional growth, both a tennis player and an individual. Tahlia has the potential to excel as a professional tennis player. Consistently demonstrating discipline, focus, and a strong work ethic. Despite her achievements, she remains grounded, approachable, and eager to learn, inspiring those around her. Technically, Tahlia’s abilities are outstanding for her age. Her precise and powerful groundstrokes, rapidly improving serve, and excellent footwork give her a competitive edge. She thrives under pressure, competing effectively against top junior players worldwide and consistently achieving strong results in national and international tournaments.
