We had a thread last year which largely allowed us to keep tabs on the progress of Anna McBride and other players in the Para tennis world, so felt a new one for 2025 would be useful. If Anna's Dad reads this, I guess Anna and our other players are down in Australia now for the Aussie Open event? I can't see a d...

So, Brighton is hosting a UTR tennis tournament with £1800 for the winner, decent money all the way down, prizes for the divisional winners, host families, etc. etc. It seems to be a men/women mixed event (based purely on UTR ranking), which is interesting. Is this a completely new thing? Or have I jus...

More 'important' congratulations get their own thread (Andy and Kim's baby, Marcus' wedding etc.) which seems right but we didn't seem to have a general congrats thread, for all tennis players (rather like the remarkable non-GB performances, or best wishes re injuries).

Feels wrong that we dont have a discussion on this to allow people to comment - the British government have tonight urged China to prove she is safe. Good. I support the wta in their stance and getting out of China is their only reasonable option now. It is untenable for the wta to play in China next year I...
