Bad news about Alex, I'm afraid. He's cracked a bone in his radius so he's going to be out for a few months. Such a shame as he was going so well.

Nice article about Harriet in the Independent http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/tennis/harriet-dart-wimbledon-2017-qualifying-preview-main-draw-a7807591.html

I can't see this being discussed anywhere else but Laura has parted company with her coach after only 6 months, according to the Beeb. Thoughts, reasons? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/13779772.stm

Couldn't find a thread for Jonny so I thought I would start one. I had the pleasure of meeting up with Jonny this evening in La Manga. He was drafted in to take part in their regular Friday night exhibition match and turned up expecting to play some friendly light hearted doubles with some of the coaches...

Hi all, Anyone know if Paul is playing in any more tournaments soon after his great run on the East European Clay this past month? Just curious if younger players are looking to up their ranking this year so they can get out of the Transition Tour easier when it takes over next year?

Where has she gone? Since claiming she is waiting for british citizenship she hasn't played. Is she injured? Or has she gone on the run with LTA funding?

Anyone agree with this? Kyle top 10 in 5 year time? Possible, interesting list... http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/tennis/predicted-tennis-top-10-in-2022-kyle-edmund-and-others-that-will-replace-rafa-nadal-andy-murray-novak-djokovic-and-roger-federer-1-858842...

Hi - where is Dan Evans? Have been away but can't find him on in the entry forms. Sorry if duplicating an other thread!

Interesting article here from an interesting fansite about Slimbomb. Clearly making an impact more than just on the Futures circuit. Are people starting to sit up and take notice? http://lobandsmash.com/2015/09/10/marcus-willis-exciting-player-youve-never-heard/

There doesn't appear to be a thread for Jack Draper so here's one for people to contribute to. I will start by pointing out that Jack has made the shortlist for BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year

Surprisingly, did not seem to have a pre-existing thread. WTA did a featurette on Ms. Boulter (duration 02:19) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1gyCi7KnpM

Liam topping off a much improved spell recently by qualifying and then reaching semis in Aptos 100k Challenger. Sensational 1st round win over Bemelmans followed by straight forward wins against two pretty decent draws. Hope he can make the final. Has he made a Ch Final before?

Ok, in the search (see other threads) for the new young hopes in British male tennis, does anyone know anything about Ryan Storrie???? There's a huge recent article about him: http://tennis.sportrightnow.com/2014/07/08/teachers-favourite-ryan-storrie-set-to-storm-british-tennis-f...

steven · steven

The possibility has been mentioned in passing on another thread, but now confirmed by the player himself: @Norriie: "first day of being British :) @GBtennis" To recap, Cameron is 17 and world junior no. 10, making him the new GB no. 1 in the ITF 18U rankings, usurping Luke Bambridge, whom...

Promising 18yr old Emily Appleton is now a Sky Sports scholar. Accompanied with a good article on her. http://www.skysports.com/tennis/news/12110/11075035/emily-appleton-on-being-a-new-sky-scholar-and-coping-with-the-womens-tennis-circuit

Looks like he might be back from injury, Im sure he was injured. Shows on the Futures entry list for Australia 24/9.

LouieG · LouieG

Currently 4th(?) alternate for the Australian Open. Do you think he'll get in?

I've been so impressed with Olivia Nicholls this Spring. Winning 4 doubles titles is so impressive and she's forming an exciting partnership with Sarah Beth Grey. Would you give the pair wild cards to the WTA British events? Or would you give it to established singles players (Hev, JoKo)? Arguably,...

Helen40 · Helen40

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...

Paul · Paul

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

Helen40 · Helen40

I've been seeing his name in green late on in weeks lately on openerarankings, so I thought I'd start a thread as I'd love to find out more about him. Is he another to watch? Does he have a chance of getting right up there? What's his history etc?

Michael D · Michael D

In the same vein as skibbarriz, here's an article from the beginning of this year that provides some background on Mandy Carreras. I see she is also still lined up for a start in Prague next week, so I hope she is now finally coming through her wrist injury too that put her out of the grass court season. Fro...
