Snezana, 13, said she was nervous before our chat in Melbourne Park this morning but soon adjusted and started talking about her fantastic experience as a ball kid.

Melbourne youngster, said she enjoyed watching the stars of world tennis including her favourite player Novak Djokovic. "I am very sorry he is out", she said. "He was playing OK. He could be playing better but just after injury you need a come back."

Snezana has a message to any kid out there who would like to become a part of the National Ball Kid Program.
"Just practice. If you practice more you get in the stage you want."
