With Jaggy having one of his little periods away, and may not do this himself, I have added Anna Brogan.


NOMINATIONS

1. Dan Cox - for achieving the most British wins in grass events over the 2022 grass court season

2. Patrick Brady - age 17 - UNR - defeating the second seed, ATP 298, and then Toby, ATP 703 in Nottingham M25

3. Alicia Barnett and Olivia Nicholls - for winning their biggest titles so far (WTA250 Granby and ITF 100k in Poland) and reaching new CH's. Lissey will become GB #1 and WR69 and Liv has risen to WR72.

4. Johannus Monday - for winning his first M25 final in Illinois, having slashed his ranking from 1500 to circa 560 over the summer.

6. Ella MacDonald (age 17) for winning J1 singles and doubles in Durban, and JA singles and doubles semis in Pretoria, taking GB #1 slot, and hitting JWR 21

7. Dan Evans - reached the semis of the Masters 1000 Montreal in singles and the final in doubles. His second career singles masters semi. In singles, beats Rublev and Fritz along the way; in doubles beat the 2nd and 5th seeds in the process.

8. Neal Skupski - won the Canadian Masters 1000 title with Wesley Koolhof, their second Masters title of the year and up to a doubles CH 3.

9. Cam Norrie - for reaching his second career Masters Semi and probably third best performance of his career overall, plus beating Carlos Alcaraz to equal his career high win , reaching WR 9 in the process.

10. Joe Salisbury - won the Cincinnati Masters 1000 title with Rajeev Ram, their second Masters title of the year and third in all to add to their two Slam titles.

11. Giles Hussey - for reaching the singles and doubles final at M25 Roehampton, and winning the doubles

12. Jamie Murray - for winning his first ATP tour title of the season in Winston-Salem, and rising back to WR14

13. Alisha Reayer - winning the 15k doubles title in Mexico - her first final - first title - showing that 'they also serve....', the tennis pyramid needs all players....

14. Marni Banks - age 19 - runner-up in Roehampton 25k, beating several top-500 players - after many injury problems - gone from unranked in July to WTA 801 now, before the Roehampton points get added

15. Megan Knight - won the British Nationals U12, despite being a category below (a big deal for that age) - beating the clear favourite, and doing it playing excellent, stand-out tennis

16. Anna Brogan - runner-up in Vigo, Spain 25K, beating the 4th and 2nd seeds, ranked 311 and 256, before losing to the top seed, ranked 224, in the final. Enough to take her to a big new CH, possibly just inside the top 400.


 So lets go nap on this - 16 players, I think there are many strong candidates! 

 

poll will go up in the next hour or so!
