Billy Harris
(

)
(Preview)
Everyone knows about Billy and his 'Billy-van'. And Bob's famous laundry service. But there was an interesting article about his recently in the French press (about Billy, that is, not Bob ) and the Isle of Man tennis club site put up a translation: Harris, the Atypical Englishman : Having left Engl...

Megan Knight

(Preview)
Ok, I know this is another post giving threads to babies in their cradles but.... I've had a strong interest in Megan Knight since she won the U12 National Championships in 2022, despite being a year young (which makes a big difference at that age). (I think she also made the semis of the U12 a year before...

Perhaps this could have gone in the US College thread but Ali doesn't appear to have his own thread yet, so I thought this achievement warranted this at least. Ali won the Hall of Fame Invitational for college players and so guaranteed himself a WC into the MD of the Newport ATP 250 next year. http://www...

It seems to me that Millie should have the ultimate honour of an Individual Player Thread Millie was a promising junior, but not an out-an-out star Now age 21, and having been in the US college system, she has developed really well her best points, the strength and power of her game. She's also improvi...

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...

Mimi Xu is (with Hep) the other extremely promising prospect we have amongst our young female players. She also is born 2007. Comes from Swansea. And has been a top LTA prospect for several years. I was very impressed when I saw her in the U18 nationals. The thing that stands out is her physique - she is...

Mika Stojsavljevic
(

(Preview)
Mika is a late 2008-born player. Plays lots of sports. Has only releatively recently decided to specialise in tennis. Tall-ish, athletic girl. A slightly 'deliberate' sort of style. But it's obviously developing. Coached by Lewandowski (and maybe others) - and hence an LTA favourite. She re...

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...

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?

Hollie Smart

I've a feeling that Hollie Smart's name is going to be a frequent one on this forum in years to come. So it's about time she had her own thread. Hollie was born in June 2009. She's a tall, slender girl. Plays quite a defensive game. After Hannah Klugman, she is pretty much the LTA's top pick for her age (alth...

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.

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?
