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...

I have started a new thread because I wanted to put up a new vote. As Theresa May announces her "3rd way" for a customs union/agreement/alignment/arrangement, I am wondering how people's opinions have changed (if at all) over the last two years. I will leave the debating points until later, other th...
New thread to try as much as possible to separate general coronavirus discussion, re such as stats and policy, from tennis related coronavirus discussion on such matters as say tournaments and rankings.
Don't seem to have a thread on this although I see some posts in the Brexit thread. ATP and WTA announced precautionary measures including no signing of tennis balls, no holding hands with mascots, ball girls and boys to be given gloves, and one I hope they keep on with; ball-girls and boys not to hand to...
Am starting this thread in response to a comment by Rosamund on the Laura Robson individual thread, as the discussion there was becoming sidetracked by posters' various reminiscences about past players!
Yep, putting it up here. As each month progresses, lets use this thread for nominees etc. on that front, January 2021 month will close 31st January. But I am very conscious we have play this week that may throw up some worthwhile candidates , so if someone catches your eye this week, please put their na...
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?
Long overdue I think, better than bundling all sorts into the Leeds and non league thread. I see, after all the speculation, Graham Potter has just left Swansea to join Brighton, signing a 4 year deal. I know everyone wants to progress in their career / life and the lure of the Premier League would be big...
For my own amusement, I thought I would try and keep track of the top tennis nations over the course of the year and see where GB stacked up. Being honest, my main interest is the mens game, so I planned to track the week by week average rankings of the top 10 players in each of the key countries and see if GB ma...

BOYS QR1: Miles Groom lost 9-11 in th...
Its that time again, this time with much longer to think about it! We got 11 wins at the US Open, 9 wins at the French Open. If I recall SuperT is our resident prediction champion, and Miriambee has a history of success before that.
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,...
