Early life

[edit]

She was born and raised in Inverness, Scotland before moving to Melbourne, Australia when she was ten and representing Australia at international tournaments. After six years, Wallace and her family moved back to Scotland where she then chose to represent Great Britain. In 2015, Wallace made the decision to represent Australia again in international sporting competitions due to lack of support from the Lawn Tennis Association.
