LTA Funding 2011
(Preview)
(Apols if this thread is buried somewhere else) Tara tweeted the other day that she was waiting for a call from the LTA to see whether her funding had been reinstated. Does anyone know what the result was? I assume everyone found out at the same time?

Whatever has happened to the 1989 and 1990 guys ?
(
1 2 3 4
)
(Preview)
No, this is not a rant at GB players not coming through, and most of us would probably agree that the 1990 born in particular is one of GB's better years ( Evans, Smethurst, Cox, Alex Ward, Pauffley ) What it is is a wonder at what has happened to the whole world's 1989 and 1990 borns ! I was aware it wasn't...

Tennis Siblings
(

)
(Preview)
I've been thinking about siblings in tennis and over the years it's raised a few curious questions in my mind. I'd like to know what other people think. 1) Why are there so many more same gender siblings in tennis as opposed to opposite gender sibs? Is it pure chance or is there a reason? 2) Is the younger s...

Wimbledon Day One - Who is going?
(Preview)
I'm heading to the station to get a train to London. I'll be in the queue tomorrow morning. Exciting times. Can someone alleviate my random memory loss - there's no particular dress code for a ground pass is there? i.e. I'm ok to wear shorts? (Will they let you in to CC in shorts?) Gutted Andy and Jamie are...

The Boodles Challenge
(Preview)
It's an "exho" so not necessarily considered a 'serious' topic for discussion. However, this year has thrown up some surprises - not least Dustin Brown who played a corker of a match against Verdasco and is most unusual to watch! Davydenko and Tsonga seem to be fit again. And today saw the r...

Inspired by Kim Clijsters, Justine Henin is also going to make a comeback and re-enter women's tennis. Even though she only went into retirement 16 months ago, Henin says that Clijsters' incredible victory at the US, and the pair's old rivalry, has inspired her to have another go. Do people think tha...
