Set Points, Wimbledon Day 4: Watching my favourites live, Lucie and Timea win!

I’ve just got back from another amazing day at Wimbledon. It was a special day as it was my birthday and I got to see two of my favourite players, Lucie Safarova and Timea Bacsinszky both win their matches in straight sets. Read on for my recaps and photos. Note another Set Points round-up will…

Set Points, Wimbledon 2016 Day 3: Bencic and Kvitova dazzle, another perfect day for the seeds!

It was another rainy day as tennis continues to get battered in Europe. June is normally a good month in the UK but the last few weeks have been just dreadful. They actually got more play completed today than I expected but there are 14 first round matches still to be played. Thursday’s schedule is…

Women’s Wimbledon 2016, 2nd Round Preview: Jo Konta v Eugenie Bouchard

In an intriguing second round match, the number 16 seed, Jo Konta will play the 2014 Wimbledon finalist, Eugenie Bouchard third up on Centre Court on Thursday. Konta had never won a match heading into SW19. Bumped up to a number 16 seed by virtue of Victoria Azarenka’s late withdrawal, Konta’s draw didn’t reflect this as…

Women’s Wimbledon 2016, 2nd Round Preview: Dominika Cibulkova v Daria Gavrilova

Dominika Cibulkova and Daria Gavrilova finished their first round matches within the space of thirty seconds to set up a compelling second round encounter set for Thursday at Wimbledon.

Set Points, Wimbledon 2016 Day 2: A perfect day for the seeds as the weather closes in

The first day of Slams are always hectic but Tuesday was slightly stunted by the rain which arrived at 4.30pm and wiped out play on the outside courts. With Wednesday’s forecast also looking dodgy, suddenly a backlog of matches looks likely. Hopefully the weather will abate to at least get all the first round matches…

Wimbledon 2016 Day 1, WTA round-up: Photos from Safarova-Mattek-Sands, Kasatkina-Duval & more

On Monday I was lucky enough to get a court 3 ticket via Ticketmaster. Therefore, Monday’s Set Points (coming a little late as I needed to sleep!) is a photo round-up of my day. While I had Court 3 tickets, I actually spent it all on the outside courts. Note the regular round-ups will kick in today…

In one of the busiest sections of the women’s draw, Eastbourne semi-finalists, Johanna Konta and Monica Puig will meet in a tough first round match to be played at Wimbledon on Tuesday. Konta’s rise up the ranking has been nothing short of extraordinary. This time last year, Konta was ranked at #126 in the world. One…
