British Tennis Forum - Celebrating 20 Years!

I thought I'd start a new thread for her as I am guessing we will be following her in the years to come. I'm pretty exited by what I hear, talent and temperament

Living in the US (why do all our good players have to have a few years away from the UK???) I hear Judy's already looking to put her in the Fed cup te...

I cannot find a thread for Alice Gillan, who has just broken into the top 500. She has an interesting background story according to her linked in page as she has a law degree. In addition to my dual career in law and tennis, I run a small baking business which provides me with a creative outlet.

Oli Golding has just posted on twitter that he is taking a break from tennis. Any thoughts/insights from anyone?

I think it might be an auspicious time to start a thread for Max .... I first watched him on some livestream when he was in Spain, and was impressed. And then on the livestream for the UP Pro League, or one of those events during lockdown, and was VERY impressed. Then saw a bit of livestream from one of the UT...

Has anyone seen this guy play ? Is he a future prospect in singles or just a doubles specialist ?

As I spotted this in Alex Kay's Blog I thought I would copy the text for other interested posters. It was disheartening to hear that 17 year-old Tara Moore has been ejected from the LTA support system due to a perceived lack of commitment to being a professional tennis player. Not having come across h...

There's a junior exhibition (I'm guessing) going on at Queen's Club during the tournament and so a quick shoutout to Arthur who beat the JWR 9 today. What a good few months the kid has had.

It struck me that, although I probably wouldn't at the moment have started a thread for either girl individually, as a pair, though, they are pretty special (and may be individually too soon): both young/very young, both WTA ranked, both on the way up. And - someone will correct me but I can't remember...

I can't see a thread dedicated to this young man, but if Maia Lumsden can have one, I don't see why he can't! There's glowing report by Barry Flatman in The Sunday Times on the future prospects of three young Brits, George being one, Jack Draper & Aiden McHugh the other two, under the heading "Life...

Have we acquired another player? Last week, when he & Ben Jones won the doubles title as wild cards in Monastir, the 24-year-old was quite clearly flying the US flag according to the ITF site. The ITF is still showing him as representing the US. Sofascore this week has assigned him a Union flag &...

Henry (born 2006) has to have a thread of his own because, as of today, 16th July 2023, he won the Boys' Junior Wimbledon singles title. This is the first time for GB in over 60 years. Not only that, he won every round in two sets, with first serves today of 134 and 132 mph - this was the quickest serve recorde...

Apologies if there's already a thread for Oliver but I couldn't find one. Anyway I just thought he deserved a shout out for getting to the final of the M15 in San Diego. Good luck in the final Oliver. Hopefully he's going to be another Billy Harris and start moving through the ranks.

I'm sure Naomi has a previous dedicated thread, but I cannae find it. So as she's apparently entered her prime, and the WTA top 100, (rising to CH95 next week), here is one... This just to say that she's tweeted that she's on Radio 5 live at 1pm today.
