María Virginia Zonta (born September 30, 1989 in Santa Fe ) is an Argentine beach volleyball player .
Career
Zonta has formed a duo with Ana Gallay since 2010 . The two Argentinians developed into the most successful team in their country in the following years and also achieved some top placings in South American tournaments. They took part in the Brasília Open in 2011 and 2012 and in the tournament in Sanya in 2012 , but did not get beyond the 41st place. Gallay / Zonta qualified for the Olympic Games in London via the Continental Cup . There they competed as the only female duo in their country in the preliminary round against the later silver medalists Kessy / Ross from the USA. However, they could not win a set in their three group games and had to say goodbye after the preliminary round. In 2013 Gallay / Zonta won the first tournament on the Continental Tour in Chile . In the following tournaments on the tour, they finished two to four. They also came 17th in the Grand Slam in Corrientes . After a fifth place in the Continental Cup, the two separated.
Zonta played on the Continental Tour with Julieta Puntin in 2014 , with Cecilia Peralta in 2015/2018 and with Maria Julia Benet in 2016 . After Georgina Klug's career ended , Zonta played again in 2017 at the side of Ana Gallay , with whom she reached the main round at the World Cup in Vienna and was eliminated here by the Brazilians Larissa / Talita .
In 2019, 19-year-old Brenda Ailen Churin is Zonta's partner on the continental tour.
