Week 26 - Wimbledon - London (grass) - women's main draw


Thanks. I thought Matt had stopped being her coach in 2019?

If Sears is only there fulltime for the grasscourt season, who was her main coach between the end of Matt and the grass?

Or was it a team approach?

Add: yes, Matt posted in October 2020 that he'd stopped. My bad, I thought it was 2019.

But, again, who took his place until Sears fulltime?

 The odd ticket is coming up on Court 1 for tomorrow so if anyone can make it, keep an eye on the website

Shout out to Melanie South who is an excellent commentator and made the match even more enjoyable - she's so insightful and sharp on technique and tactics. Fortunate to have her on ESPN+! I hope the world feed, Beeb, Tennis Channel use her more.


 I agree, she is great. BBC should fire 90% of it's commentators and try some new blood. Mel and Naomi B should be up there.. I turn the sound off when Andrew C, Tim H and John L are on and they are on A LOT! There was a Scottish guy commentating in the Quals that was funny and sharp. Not sure who that was

It was Andrew Cotter, knowledgable and with a Murray like wry sense of humour.

Agreed on Mel as a commentator. So frustrating that the BBC wheel out the same guys each year to commentate on (invariably) the British men matches. Their main qualification appearing to be an ability to be a sycophant and to do minimal research on anyone, other than on Murray.

There are exceptions to that rule (I don't mind McEnroe for example) but Castle, Henman, Lloyd, Petchey, Inverdale et al. are insufferable.

On the board.....c'mon Radders!!

Nice to hear BJK being so complimentary about her on BBC beforehand, Tracy Austin during commentary too.
