RISING YOUNG AMERICAN IRINA FALCONI SIGNS WITH AGENT ATLETA |

Las Vegas, Nev. (December 28, 2011) – Agent Atleta Ltd. has announced the signing of American professional tennis player Irina Falconi to an agency agreement. Falconi climbed over 100 spots in the WTA rankings in 2011 to finish her first full season on tour amongst the top 80 players in the world.

She reached a career high of No. 73 in October off the strength of a third round appearance at the U.S. Open where she upset No. 14 seed Dominika Cibulkova in the second round on Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Falconi, age 21, is expected to be a strong candidate for the 2012 U.S. Olympic team in London. Earlier this fall, she claimed a gold medal in singles for the U.S. at the Pan-Am games in Mexico.

Agent Atleta’s Jordan J. Butler will represent Falconi. “Irina is a great person and a special player with an innate feel for the game and a unique ability to expose her opponent’s weaknesses. It will be exciting to see her continued development in 2012 and beyond, and I’m elated to be representing a player of her caliber and personal character,” said Mr. Butler.

Falconi will attempt to qualify at the Auckland and Sydney WTA events before competing at the Australian Open, as one of six American women eligible for direct entry into the main draw. She is coached by Jeff Wilson, a former assistant at Georgia Tech, where Falconi was a two-time All-American before turning pro following her sophomore year in May of 2010.

Fans and media can follow Falconi, who also speaks fluent Spanish, on Twitter @irinafalconi.
