Clarice Ouvarova
(Preview)
As I recall, Emma's main journey towards top tennis started with a J5 she won at age 13 (nearly 14) So Clarice Ouvarova deserves a thread She's born in 2010 but still age 13And has just won the singles AND the doubles in the J30 in the Dom RepI've never seen her play and there's not much info about her in Br...

Lauryn John-Baptiste
(Preview)
Lauryn comes from the East End of London and is a junior I saw play quite a bit (because she was London-based) A good athlete, a well-rounded game, good ball skills - a lot better than many of her cohort and (IMO) always in the 'interesting' group, if not in a 'stand-out' group. She managed to get hersel...

Sonay Kartal
(

(Preview)
Well, it's got to be done..... Sonay Kartal, age 19, has just won the ITF 15 title in Turkey, and deserves her own thread. A promising youngster, who played a lot against/with Emma Raducanu as a tiddler and young teenager, she's had a few injuries issues and, for whatever reason, didn't travel abroad...

Hephzibah Oluwadare

(Preview)
I know she's terribly young to have her own thread but I think this forum is going to be talking about Hephzibah an awful lot in the years to come so I'm starting a thread for her now. Having just turned 13 ten days ago (born 31 October 2007), she is an extremely impressive player and athlete - a strong girl,...

He also won the U18 doubles title, with Henry Searle. And previously won the U12 and U14 nationals too. Currently at the Loughb...

Olivia Nicholls

(Preview)
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,...

As I spotted this in Alex Kay's Blog I thought I would copy the text for other interested posters. It was disheartening to hear that 17 year-old Tara Moore has been ejected from the LTA support system due to a perceived lack of commitment to being a professional tennis player. Not having come across h...

Apologies if there's already a thread for Oliver but I couldn't find one. Anyway I just thought he deserved a shout out for getting to the final of the M15 in San Diego. Good luck in the final Oliver. Hopefully he's going to be another Billy Harris and start moving through the ranks.

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...

At age 15, Isabelle Lacy (born 2006) is very well thought of by the LTA and has now zoomed into the adult WTA rankings, at WR 1182, with 11 points, after coming through qualis at the ITF 100k at Surbiton. A tall, slender girl, with good arm speed, nice technique, and a back-of-the-court game that gets goo...

Jake appears not to have a dedicated thread, but given that he won his second ITF title in Esch-sur-Alzette last weekend (his first being in Edgbaston last October, when he had to qualify & went on to beat Kyle in straight sets in the final) (both M25s), I thought he deserved one. He had an SE for the...

Congrats to Blu on getting selected for sponsorship by Token Stars. It will be interesting to see what sort of year he has - there's definitely good potential there, and he's been a fave for a while, but one could argue that he is currently 'fully priced in', there's no 'rough diamond' argument there. ...
