Like many, Caroline Garcia enjoys her mother’s cooking. But for the 22-year-old WTA rising star, that cooking takes place in apartments around the world as the French tennis pro trots the globe in search of ranking points and tournament victories.
“When mom is cooking, we are more in a routine,” says the Lyon, France, native who just recently turned 22 on Oct. 16. “You can better relax when you go through things like you usually do. It is more comfortable.”
Garcia must hop from tournament to tournament, often hitting up to four events in a row without a break.
