Tom Kershaw's refreshingly honest interview with Fran - which he claims is exclusive - in today's Times, "Secret concussion and blood-stained rackets - on the road with Fran Jones". God, she has some gumption! What an inspiration! Some fascinating facts & figures & an interesting perspective on Emma Raducanu's situation, friendship & drugs in tennis ("I don't think it's a clean sport"!).

Fran is surely the grittiest player on tour given all she's gone through yet refuses to give up.
