Chloe won 10 singles matches for the two weeks and then combined with her younger sister Petra Hule to win both doubles titles winning eight matches for the two weeks.

National Academy Manager, Rohan Fisher said “Chloe has placed herself in a great position now to be considered for a Main Draw Wild Card into the Australian Open Juniors for 2014”.
“Playing in the Australian Open in 2014 was a goal set at the start of the year and Chloe’s consistent improvement throughout the year has really made this a realistic proposition.”
“The other pleasing aspect in Gosford from Fisher’s perspective was the performances of a number of the South Australian girls. We had 5 SA girls in the last eight of the NSW’s ITF – Chloe Hule, Petra Hule, Nicole Kraemer, Olivia Ley and Jeanette Lin”
“All these 5 girls now have career high junior ITF rankings as a result of their performances in Gosford” continues Rohan

Petra combined with fellow National Academy Adelaide athlete to win the 14s National Doubles Title at Homebush in Sydney and the as mentioned above won both ITF doubles titles in Gosford.
South Australian tennis has had an incredible run with doubles titles this year across all levels.

Eight SA juniors (Lliam Bishop, Oliver Douglas, Nicole Kraemer, Petra Hule, Jeanette Lin, Stefan Norodom, Isabella Ryles and Sean Van Rensburg) have been involved in the winning of National Junior Doubles titles during the past 9 months.
