Ganz started playing tennis at the age of 11, and grew up playing on the clay courts at Flamingo Park in Miami Beach, Florida. Ganz was a two-time Orange Bowl 18 and under champion, having won the titles in 1971 and 1972.[1] She also won the Easter Bowl titles in the girls 18 and under in those same years. [2]
Ganz's best performance on tour came at the 1975 French Open, where she had wins over Mariana Simionescu, Rosie Darmon and Dianne Fromholtz, who at the time was a top 10 ranked player in the world, before she fell in the quarter-finals to Martina Navratilova.[3][4]
