Early life

[edit]

Her mother Ildiko is a secretary and her father Sandor a gymnastics trainer; she has an older brother (Peter). Marosi was introduced to tennis at age six by Antal and Eva Elekes in Budapest. Favorite surface of the all-court player was hardcourt, favorite shot forehand. Best memories include warming-up her serve with Steffi Graf in 1996 Roland Garros juniors, and winning her first ITF event. Marosi admired Graf because she knew everything about tennis and was so good mentally.
