As a reminder, the qualifying round is for players who played singles at Wimbledon but did not win a match in this period. I have included a number of wild cards to bring the totals up to 45 for men and women.

There are 5 groups of 9 players with a random draw.

Those with the highest number of votes (with a maximum of 16 players) across all the 5 groups will qualify for the 1st round proper.

Please feel free to provide reasons for your choices along with any memories that you may have of them.

! am planning to close the polls at around 10.00 on Saturday morning

I do remember Shelley at Wimbledon so on that basis she gets my vote.

Elinore Lightbody was possibly the best Welsh lady player of all time, so she got my vote!

Lisa Whybourn's career was haled by a serious of injuries. Now coaching in Australia, I believe.
