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...

Mimi (Mingge) Xu
(

(Preview)
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...

Daniella Britton
(Preview)
As I recall, Emma's main journey towards top tennis started with a J5 she won at age 13 (nearly 14) So Dani Britton deserves a thread She's born at the end of November so it very young for the year, and only a couple of months older than some of the best 2011s She's a tall girl, and because of that, perhaps,...

As she's just won a J1 singles event (and the doubles), which is pretty rare and top level, and taken over the number one slot, Ella MacDonald deserves a thread of her own Born in 2005, Ella is the daughter of ex-pro footballer, Neil MacDonald (Preston, Everton, Newcastle.....) She's been one of the LT...

I wrote a piece about up and coming junior Harry Wendelken this week on the back of a successful year. I spoke to him, his coach and his parents to try to get a rounded view on what it's like to be coming through as a junior. After a good showing for him at Sweden this week I thought it might be quite timely to po...

Henry (born 2006) has to have a thread of his own because, as of today, 16th July 2023, he won the Boys' Junior Wimbledon singles title. This is the first time for GB in over 60 years. Not only that, he won every round in two sets, with first serves today of 134 and 132 mph - this was the quickest serve recorde...

Time for a thread for young Talia (born 2005) ..... At age 16, being a wildcard, and in only her second adult ITF event, she has made it all the way to final in the 25k at Birmingham this week, before losing in three sets. An amazing week for her. Talia has had some nasty injuries in recent years. Fractured...

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...

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...

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...

She's also improvi...
