South African native on quest for championship in doubles

Arizona senior Michelle Gough knows what it is like to be a good tennis player. Now she wants to be great.

A fierce competitor on the court, Gough has entered the 2000-2001 women's tennis season on a quest to achieve greatness.

"She's a bit of a perfectionist," UA head coach Brad Dancer said. "She sets high expectations for herself and has a deep burning desire to win."

Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa, Gough's tennis career began at the age of seven and has yet to slow down.
