Para Tennis 2025 Thread

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...

On the grounds that occasionally someone does something quite extraordinary that seems to merit attention but doesn't fit into any other thread, would the mods be all right with this as a thread? If so, may I nominate Gilles Simon as a worthy opener? A few days ago, he was on crutches and the assumption...

There are TONS of potential people to note here. I'd been keeping a list but it's not complete and so I've given up.... So just a little shout out today to Andy Bettles who seems to be doing a great job in Svitolina's corner, at the Aussie open. Good to see him, as one of our college boys, making a good living...

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).
