Daniel Vallejo: The pearl of Paraguayan tennis
On Canal Tenis we will discover the career of Daniel Vallejo, one of the great jewels of South American tennis. His beginnings, Davis Cup and his admiration for Andy Murray.
Beginnings
“Dani”, as he is called by those around him, was born in Asunción in 2004. His grandfather's influence led him to become involved in this sport. At the age of 6 he grabbed his first racket and from that moment he knew that this was serious "I started playing tennis because my brothers did and my grandfather Carmelo Álvarez was a tennis teacher." His grandfather passed away in 2004, the same year that Dani was born. His brothers Joaquín and Juan Pablo have received scholarships from universities in the United States. “I always wanted to be a professional and that was reinforced when I started traveling to play abroad. I started traveling when I was 11 or 12 years old and from then on I didn't stop”, said the young Vallejo.
Your references? Víctor Pecci and Ramón Delgado, idols of Paraguayan tennis and the former British No.1 in the world, Andy Murray. “My favorite player is Andy Murray. I like his personality and I like how he is on and off the court, I think he is one of the most tactically intelligent tennis players” he commented.
