Ela Nala Milić (born 28 February 2006) is a Slovenian tennis player.

Career

[edit]

Milić made her WTA main-draw debut at the 2021 Zavarovalnica Sava Portorož after receiving a wildcard for the doubles main draw.[citation needed]

Given a wildcard entry into the WTA 125 2023 Zavarovalnica Sava Ljubljana, Milić lost in the first round to third seed Dalma Gálfi in three sets.[2]

In April 2024, she played for Slovenia in the Billie Jean King Cup qualifying tie against Slovakia.[3] Milić lost in the opening singles match to Anna Karolína Schmiedlová [4] and, partnering with Pia Lovrič, was also defeated in the dead rubber doubles against Viktória Hrunčáková and Tereza Mihalíková.[5]

Again given a wildcard for the 2024 Zavarovalnica Sava Ljubljana, she once more lost in the first round, this time to Anastasiia Sobolieva.[6]

Personal life

[edit]

Milić is the daughter of former basketball player Marko Milič and the granddaughter of former shot putter Vladimir Milić.[7]
