I think this could prove a very close and interesting vote. I've gone for Jo, but all 4 had strong cases and I hope all get votes!

Semi final results were pretty emphatic. Final might be much closer.

Gone for Stuart myself as so many of his wins seem to have come against much higher ranked opponents.

Yep, it was Jo for me too.

Big fan of Stu but exhibition matches don't count in the same way....

Mind you, I voted for Jay and Liam in the semi-finals stage - not on logic, really
Just coz Jay's win was really symbolic, the start of 'real' GB tennis again.
And I watched both Liam's challengers matches and really enjoyed them, just when work was really getting the better of me, so I he got my very appreciative vote!

Sticking with Mr Parker: Ms Konta should have her chance next month.

Interesting philosophical choice this - elite player who had a hrra week and achieved a world class result; top doubles pair who did the same, if not better, but how does doubles stack v singles? A lesser known 3rd tier player who has played well above themselves and achieved career best results? Or an up and coming player who dominated a domestic circuit and topped their peers?

None right or wrong, depends on personal viewpoint I think!

Interesting. I thought if anyone was going to get at all close to Jo it would be Emma again.
