Equipped with a dreamy draw, Madison Keys has snapped up her berth in the final eight of Wimbledon. Last year, she won Eastbourne but then an injury forced to retire from a delayed third round match against Yaroslava Shvedova. This year she lost early in Eastbourne, trounced in fact by Belinda Bencic, 6-2 6-2. She…
Perhaps it’s just me but this is my FAVOURITE of the women’s quarter-finals. Garbine Muguruza and Timea Bacsinszky have reached back-to-back quarter-finals at Roland Garros and Wimbledon which is an awesome effort from both. Even more noteworthy is that Muguruza and Bacsinszky had never previously made it past the second round at Wimbledon. Both Garbine…

A longer break since Roland Garros and a neat draw have helped Maria progress through her first four rounds without the loss of any sets. Sharapova was tested in her fourth round match against Zarina Diyas but ultimately prevailed, 6-4…

It’s unlikely that i’ll be able to watch anything in full so i’ve decided to keep this page up on mootennis.com and update it with the results and snippets of…
On Friday, I was on No.1 Court with my mum. She got lucky in the public ballot and very kindly decided to take me! It was nice to show her around as she hadn’t been for ten years and so much has changed at Wimbledon since then. I knew we were going to be in…
