Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: A March break in Florida - the whole month - is what Helen Kelesi has prescribed before resuming her tennis career. I've set goals for myself and beat them and now I'm in a period of steadying out, said the 17-year-old Toronto resident, who was voted Tennis Canada's female player of the year yesterday.
