Injury luck aside, Bellis was certainly ready to turn pro—when you’re good enough to be ranked in the top 40 when you’re 18, you’re ready.
Assuming she gets healthy soon, I imagine she’ll prove to us all that she made the right choice by going pro. She’s got the kind of talent to make millions more than she already has, so even with this injured stretch, I wouldn’t say yet that she made the wrong decision by forgoing Stanford.
FYI, I have to retract my statement that Georgia is returning its full lineup. Freshman Lourdes Carle, who played #3, has elected to turn pro. A bit of a surprise, but she must have felt she would develop faster on tour.
