Jordan Morais following his dreams in Portugal
Jordan has settled in in Portugal and is excited to be participating in tournaments at the end of the month.
JORDAN Morais (19) is following his dreams of one day being one of the greats on the tennis scene.
Having previously had the opportunity to visit Portugal where the chances of training and competing at the highest level of tennis are a lot higher than in South Africa, he was forced to come back home after an injury.
Now with the help of several benefactors this young Albertonian is back and plans to carry South Africa’s and Alberton’s names high overseas.
Jordan contacted the RECORD to give feedback on how his training in Portugal is going.
According to Jordan, everything is going extremely well. Despite the early weeks of his stay in Portugal being very busy, the players on that side were very excited to see him and to hear all the stories of his tournaments in South Africa.
“It was such a hype,” said Jordan. “Slowly, slowly everything has settled in now and I’ve been training a lot.”
Jordan has been doing much of his training at Estoril, which is his main club, working with his coach Ricardo Cochicho.
Jordan is very excited to be playing his first tournament since he came back to Portugal on March 30.
This will be the first on his road to get back to playing tournaments and reaching his dream of being a player on the ATP tour.
Keep an eye on the RECORD to see how his first tournament went.
