Tennis Europe has long been the platform of choice for the launch of a successful career and is held across 43 of the 50member nations of Tennis Europe. Players from over 100 countries participate in these tournaments worldwide. Some of the top players on the circuit today have participated in these tournaments.

The Bahamas Jacobi Bain is performing well in the Tennis Europe U14 Tournament being held in Bulgaria at The Tennis Academy Palacio. Jacobi obtained a bye in qualifyings and is blazing through the main draw competition. Jacobi's opening match in the main draw was against Mihael Mihaylov from Bulgaria where he won the first set 6-2 and lost the second 4-6 and came back to win convincingly in the third set 6-0. Jacobi then went on to play the number third seeded in the tournament Alex Ganchev from Bulgaria and won once again in splendid fashion 6-1, 6-3.

Jacobi's next match in Round 3 will be against Viselin Kiselkov who is ranked number 12.  Jacobi Bain is coming off an Eddie Herr semifinalist placement last year and participation (along with teammates Denali Nottage and Kofi Bowe from Freeport) in the finals at the ITF World Tennis Juniors. Jacobi continues with his singles play and is performing really well as he advances on the European circuit.
