- Keep: She meets the guidelines of Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennis/Article guidelines#Player as she has competed in Fed Cup competition before. Keroks (talk) 01:13, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- That's still an essay. Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis is considered the notability standard which does not include Fed Cup. LibStar (talk) 01:19, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
- There are many many tennis player articles which are based of their participation in Fed Cup / Davis Cup competition. If you delete this one, I also suggest you go through many of the other thousand articles and delete those too for consistency. Keroks (talk) 12:33, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
