ABOUT THE PROJECT

Marci grabbed his first tennis racket when he was 5 years old, at the local tennis club, in his hometown Nyíregyháza. As a kid, he tried a lot of different sports, but he soon committed to tennis. He was only 8 years old when he became a determining player among the 12-year-olds. In 2003 he won his first national champion title. As the winner of the national round of the Nike Junior Tour, he got the opportunity to play at the world final in South Africa. Soon he became part of the national team, and by that, he competed at the Under-14 World Championship, where he grabbed the attention of experts with his play. He got invited to the First Line Tennis Academy at the age of 15 to continue his training and preparations there. Therefore, he got the opportunities and conditions provided, which are necessary for competing at international level.

In a short time, those victories arrived and in 2009 Marci became a junior Vice-European Champion. In the same year, he gained his first Grand Slam victory and won the junior tournament at the US Open in doubles. This success made Marci the very first Hungarian tennis player, who was able to win the American Grand Slam.
