Jana Fett was born on November 2, 1996 in Zagreb, Croatia. Jana plays with her right hand, but she's actually a left-handed, as can be seen when she gives autographs. Her coach is a former Yugoslav and Croatian professional tennis player, Goran Prpic.
"Jana likes to work and shows constant progress. Ana Konjuh and Donna Vekic achieved better results in the first years of their professional career, but that does not mean anything. Before Jana, there are still years of playing and many opportunities. Only let it serve health. In any case, with Ana, Donna and Jan, we have a very strong and young team, and I hope for much better results in the Fed Cup next year" says the Croatian national team Iva Majoli who knows very well the potential of the right-handed aggression that prefers the hard surface.
