Mirjana Lu?i?-Baroni is a professional Croatian tennis player. She enjoyed a promising career on the WTA Tour in the late 1990s, during which she set several "youngest-ever" records, won the Grand Slam women's doubles title at the Australian Open in 1998 when she was only 15 years old, partnered by Martina Hingis, won the first ever professional tournament she entered, the 1997 Croatian Bol Ladies Open, and defended it the following year at age 16, making her the youngest player in history to successfully defend a title. She reached the semifinals of Wimbledon in 1999. Following a series of personal problems from 2000 onwards, she faded from the scene. After toiling through the ITF circuit through much of the next decade, Lu?i? re-emerged as a WTA regular following the 2010 season. She married Daniele Baroni on 15 November 2011. In September 2014 she upset world number 2 Simona Halep in the third round of the US Open. The following week she beat Venus Williams at the Tournoi de Qu�bec singles final to claim the title, which set the record for the longest gap between titles in the Open Era.
