What is your name, birthdate, nationality, residence?
My name is Laís Monteiro Carvalho. I am Brazilian and I was born on September 16, 2013, in Araguari, Minas Gerais. I currently live in Uberlândia, Brazil.
What languages ​​do you speak?
I speak Portuguese and I am studying English, Spanish, and French.
At what age did you start playing tennis?
I started playing tennis recreationally when I was eight years old. At 10, I started competing and taking training and tournaments more seriously.
Are there other tennis players in your family?
I am the first tennis player in my family. Because of that, tennis has been a great learning experience not only for me, but also for my parents, who live every step of this journey with me.
In which tennis club do you train?
I train at Udi Tênis in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais.
Who are your coaches?
My tennis coach is Nicolas Keit Caetano. I also work with my fitness coach, Isis Moreira, and my mental coach, Fernando Guevara.
What is your greatest strength as a player, and what do you need to improve?
My greatest strengths are my fighting spirit, my dedication to training, and my backhand. I am a player who likes to be aggressive and go after points. What I most want to improve is my ability to leave mistakes behind quickly, stay focused on the next point, and not let one mistake affect the rest of the match.
What is your age category and national ranking?
I currently play in the 14 years category and I am ranked No. 66 in the CBT national ranking.
What have been your greatest successes so far?
Among my main achievements are reaching the semifinal of the Brazilian Tennis Championship in 2025, a semifinal at a CBT G1 tournament in 2025, and winning the doubles title in the 14 years category at a CBT G1 tournament. Every result was important to me, especially because of what I learned in each competition.
In which countries have you played tournaments?
So far, I have only played tournaments in Brazil, but I am preparing to start competing internationally soon.
What equipment brands do you currently use (racket, string, shoes, clothing…), and are you sponsored by any of them?
I currently play with Yonex rackets and accessories, use Asics shoes, and wear clothing from different brands, mainly Nike and Wilson. I do not have a sponsor yet, but I hope in the future to build a partnership with a brand that believes in my development and my tennis journey.
What is your next goal?
My next goal is to start playing COSAT tournaments outside Brazil, gain international experience, and continue improving my level of play. I also plan to do a training period in Spain next year.
What is your tennis dream?
My dream is to keep improving in tennis, reach a higher and higher level, and in the future have the opportunity to play for a university in the United States with a high-level tennis program. I want to discover how far tennis can take me.
Who is your favorite player and why?
My favorite player is Aryna Sabalenka. I really like her power, her fighting spirit on court, and also the spontaneity and personality she shows off the court.
What do you enjoy doing outside of tennis?
Outside of tennis, I mainly like being with my friends, talking, having fun, and enjoying my free time like any girl my age.
Who would you like to dedicate this interview to?
I would like to dedicate this interview to my parents, who have always supported me, and to my coaches, who have helped a lot in my development.
