Victoria comes from athletic parental background. Her father, Joan, is a former professional tennis player who reached a career-high ATP Tour ranking of 505.

Even though she was born in Andorra, because of her father’s professional career, she spent three years of her childhood in Kentucky, United States.

Because of her mixed ethnic background, Victoria speaks English, Spanish, French, Russian, and Catalan fluently.

She grew up with her brother but had to move to Barcelona with her father as there were no tennis courts to train in Andorra.

She lived with her father in Barcelona, away from her home country, and her brother and mother, which was hard for her in the beginning. However, she admits that it eventually made her stronger than ever.

Born in 2005, Jiménez is 18 years old as of March 2024.

According to her birthdate, her sun sign is Leo, known for being confident, drama-adoring, comfortable being the center of attention, and ambitious.

Also, she stands 1.80 meters tall and weighs about 130 pounds.

Career

Kasintseva comes from the world’s 11th-smallest country by population, called Andorra.

It was hard for her to make a start in professional tennis. The only ranked player in her country’s history on either tour was her dad, Joan Guerra. He reached #505 on the ATP Tour in 1999.

Through Kasintseva’s junior year, Juan coached her.

She found inspiration to pursue tennis professionally from other players from non-traditional tennis countries, such as Alexandra Eala of the Philippines and Ons Jabeur of Tunisia.

Kasintseva made her junior Grand Slam debut and defeated Polish tennis player Weronika Baszak in the finals of the 2020 Australian Open girls’ singles.

She has won nine singles titles on the ITF Junior Circuit. On 9 March 2022, she achieved a career-high ITF Junior ranking of #1.
