For me, the achievements of Hannah in becoming world number one and Anna in winning the AO title for her category of tennis deserve accolade. Although I nominated her, Hannah really achieved what she did over a year and January itself wasnt so strong. Although Im very tempted to vote for Anna, it is with regrets that I am going to vote for Neal.
What an achievement - only his second grand slam mens doubles title and back to world number one, and the first time outright on his own! Neal gets my vote
FWIW, Neal did have one week as sole WR 1 in 2023, as well as over 20 weeks as joint #1 with Wesley Koolhof.
