Alfie Hewett is without a vote here, which I find stunning. I know I didnt vote for him myself, although I think he had a marvellous year. In case you are looking at who to vote for
Alfie is British #1 Mens Wheelchair. He is WR 2 and won 38-6, 86%, of singles matches; Massively he won US Open Singles, and French Open and Australian Open Doubles. He played on Court One at Wimbledon live on BBC when he played two massive matches - the tennis highlights of my year.
To be fair Jon, if Alfie isn't even getting your vote here he may well struggle to get off the mark at all. And to me not only is that not stunning, it doesn't surprise me.
My vote goes to Lissey & Lv although I waa very tempted to give it to Jodie with her rise up the rankings this year and so much better attitude and much better competing through to the end in matches but that's more about finally stopping a negative rather rhan a positive. Jodie is now more where she should be.

I do fear you are right, Indy. I recall he reached the final , was it last year or year before, I need to check. I think at the time it was a fresh name and results , perhaps like others (say an Andy or maybe Cam this year) familiarity of performance tends to lead to someone getting overlooked by those who have improved much more - which is fine, of course, it is just the way it is.
focus is now on Group C, which closes at 6 pm. Just 43 votes here, so hopefully a few more to come?
Although the final order looks clear, it is close enough that one or two votes could make a difference - would be great to get 43 up to 46 like Group B.
