Fran doesn't quite make it into the MD for Roland Garros

Just got to hope for some dropouts .....

Tom Kershaw's refreshingly honest interview with Fran - which he claims is exclusive - in today's Times, "Secret concussion and blood-stained rackets - on the road with Fran Jones".  God, she has some gumption!  tophat.gif  What an inspiration!  Some fascinating facts & figures & an interesting perspective on Emma Raducanu's situation, friendship & drugs in tennis ("I don't think it's a clean sport"!).

 Fran is surely the grittiest player on tour given all she's gone through yet refuses to give up.

Fran got her first Grand Slam victory !!!!!

Six previous losses

But the 7th time was the winner

A really gutsy match, too, against a former top-10 player

Roland Garros 2026

R1: Fran WR105 def Beatriz Haddad Maia (BRA) WR 78 1-6 7-6(4) 6-2
