Chiara Fornasieri

Biography

Chiara Fornasieri was born on 26 September 2003 in Turin and represents Italy. She plays right-handed. She picked up a racket at the age of six, took her first steps at the Sporting Club Borgaro, then trained for several seasons at the Circolo della Stampa Sporting in Turin, and later moved to the Sport Village Bertolla club. In her junior years she repeatedly won Piedmont championships, reached the final of the Italian under-12 girls' doubles championship, played in the European junior series and was part of the program supporting young talents run under the Italian federation. In 2020 she reached the semifinal of a J5 junior tournament in Hungary, and in the ITF junior rankings she rose to around No. 500. She builds her senior career at lower-level ITF tournaments, above all in Italy, Romania and Georgia, playing both singles and doubles. A notable episode came in April 2025: in the regional qualifier for the pre-qualifying of the Rome tournament she beat the more experienced Jessica Bertoldo 0–6, 7–6, 6–4, saving two match points during the tiebreak, and earned the right to play in Rome at the Foro Italico. In 2026 she reached the final of a W15 event in Galați, Romania.
