Introduction

Dalma Rebeka Gálfi (born 13 August 1998, in Veszprém) is a Hungarian tennis player.

Personal life and background

Galfi started playing tennis when she was five years old. Her father had two tennis courts, and he taught her how to play tennis.

Career highlights

2013

Gálfi was given a wild card for the 2013 Budapest Grand Prix, where she made her WTA main-draw debut alongside Lilla Barzó in doubles, only to lose to the 2011 French Open champions Andrea Hlaváčková and Lucie Hradecká.

2015: ITF Junior Champion

In December 2015, Gálfi was pronounced ITF Junior World Champion. In that year, she won the girls' singles title at the US Open, and the girls' doubles title (with Fanny Stollár) at the Wimbledon Championships.
