British teen Klugman inspired by Andreeva’s Australian Open run

BRITAIN’S Hannah Klugman is looking to follow in the footsteps of teen sensation Mirra Andreeva at the Australian Open.

Sixteen-year-old Andreeva lost in the junior final 12 months ago but beat sixth-seeded Ons Jabeur in the Rod Laver Arena on her way to the fourth round of the women’s singles in Melbourne this year before losing to Barbora Krejcikova.

Klugman, from Wimbledon, does not turn 15 until next month but is already ranked seventh in the junior game and has been attracting attention well beyond British shores.
