Joss is from Nottingham.

Really? My bad. But I could have sworn she was Scottish.

She represented Scotland at the Commonwealth Games. And Judy Murray has talked about her being Scottish.

Her Dad is Scottish, she wouldn't have got into the English team at that Commonwealth Games, probably why she played for Scotland.

I also thought that Joss was Scottish?

PaulM · Tennis legend

She's born and raised in Nottingham.

As Wolf said her dad is Scottish, so that was enough to make her eligible at the Commonwealth Games. She admitted in an interview she didn't even know the words to Flower of Scotland.

Oops, CD misled me
