2025 PLAYER OF THE SEASON VOTE - ROUND ONE, GROUP D
Permalink  

Here we go - 28 players in 4 groups of 7, all containing 3 or 4 men and women each and one team. 

I havent tried to summarise the players seasons - several players cross genres and I dont what to create any bias. You need to do your own research and decide who to vote for. 

From each group, the top 3 plus any ties for a qualifying place get through to the semis. 

This vote will close at 8.55am Monday morning, 5th January. Enjoy! 

When you vote, please tell us who for any why, it will create more interest. 

Players listed in alphabetical order by surname

I was pleased to see Katie return to form and have a great year and Oli T stormed the summer. But Fran established herself near the top of the womens game and as a top 100 player and deserves a lot of kudos. And she gets my vote.

This feels like the group where there are lots of excellent performances at a similar level, so hard to choose but, like Jon, I've gone for Fran, for showing us what she's capable of when she has the chance to have a really solid season.

Yes, could be a very competitive group!

Not surprising really in terms of exposure, etc, but none of our disability players have picked up any votes yet. Hopefully one or two will come across the groups.

 Exposure is no doubt a component. With respect, so too will be active choice. All the best to them.

Voted for Anna for her achievements in an area where there is little official support or interest.

 Probably true and , being honest, I didnt vote for any of them. Tbh I felt their seasons werent as strong as past years as a cohort compared to others groups of players. Alfie and Alfie/Gordon have the highest profiles but didnt perform to past levels this year gone.

Certainly Fran for me here. WR 73 at year end ( CH 71 in October) and GB #3 from WR 152 at the end of 2024 with 2 WTA 125 titles and 2 W75s titles to her name. Great year.

Mentions definitely for Katie Swan - great to see her back from April and her progress, particuiarly latterly in Australia, ending the year at WR 276 and GB #10, Oliver Tarvet - with his ITF titles and great run at Wimbledon, qualifying, winning.a MD round and putting up a very good show vs Carlos Alcaraz in R2, and Alfie and Gordon - Australian Open and French Open doubles titles no less but down on their own great previous years' domination.
