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?
Rory McIlroy - heck !! And he relatively actually hadn't been playing that well with in particular dodgy approaches with pundits agreeing that he was scoring better than he was playing - a useful trick.

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...
