Interesting Facts
Victoria Na will be Australia's only singles representative in London. She will fulfil her Olympic dream after taking up the sport that her father, a keen player himself, got her involved when she was 9.
She won her first national junior title in 2005, taking out the U/15 singles division before going on to win the Australasian U/17 singles title in 2007 and the Australasian U/19 singles title in 2009.
Na had a strong 2011 competing in a number of tournaments in Africa winning the Ethiopia and Namibia International events and coming runner up at the Zimbabwe International. Closer to home, Na claimed 2nd place at the Altona Cup and the Manukau International.
Welcoming the world's best to Australia in early 2012, Na had an opportunity to take on some of the leading contenders for medals in Sydney at the Yonex International. Despite being knocked out early, the opportunity to play opponents she may face in London in front of a home crowd was a boost heading towards the London Games.
