At the second day of Kids Week, the best Slovenian tennis player Blaž Kavčič who participated three times in Umag, trained with the kids. Roughly twenty kids did a short practice with Kavčič who, even though he comes from a skiing family, played tennis since he was four.

"I'll try to play as best I can. I like playing in Umag, because a lot of Slovenian tennis fans come and cheer for me, however, I hope that won't create a lot of pressure", said Kavčič. He's aware that the Slovenian crowd expects a lot from him, but he believes that he has enough experience to play to the best of his abilities. "I didn't start the season like I envisioned it, but I got myself into good shape and my game keeps improving, and I'm hoping to continue doing that until the end of the season", added Kavčič, the first Slovenian player in the TOP 100 on the ATP list.
