Biography

An ambidextrous player from Grimbergen, Vermoezen could use both double-handed forehands and backhands. In 2005 she won a bronze medal in the girls' singles event at the European Youth Summer Olympic Festival and featured in the junior draws at Wimbledon. From 2006 she competed as a professional.

In 2007, Vermoezen was called up to Belgium's Fed Cup team for a World Group playoff tie against China in Knokke-Heist. She was an injury replacement for Kirsten Flipkens, in a Belgian side already missing their top players. [1] Her opportunity came in the doubles, a dead rubber, which she and Debbrich Feys lost to the Chinese pairing, whose team won the tie 4-1. [2]

Vermoezen retired due to injury in 2008. [3]
