Tuesday was another glorious sunny day in Eastbourne… what is this MADNESS? There were 14 second round matches and it was my favourite day of the trip so far as I tried to cover as many of the matches as possible. I’ll be heading home on Wednesday but hope to try and catch the first…
Daria Kasatkina won just her fifth career match on grass, battling back from a set down to beat Alison Van Uytvanck in her second round match in Eastbourne, 5-7 6-4 6-1. My last live experience of watching Dasha in Melbs was rather disastrous so i’m really glad I got to see her finish with a…
Monday was the busiest day of the tournament so far and also the warmest! Today was a mix of live tennis with some press too from WTA All Access Hour. I’m bracing myself for Tuesday which is going to be even busier. There are so many matches that I want to try and follow! Read…
Sunday is always my favourite day in Eastbourne as the WTA main draw begins and there are no ticket restrictions so you can pick and choose where to sit on Centre Court. It was another glorious day filled with sunshine. It was very relaxed compared to Saturday as I spent my day hopping between Centre,…
On Saturday I got the opportunity to do a one-on-one interview with Johanna Konta on the Eastbourne Centre Court. This was my first ever one-to-one with a player and i’m still freaking about it! So the story… Jo was advertised to do a pre-tournament press conference on Saturday. I went to the media centre ready…

Unlike the most recent years that have been largely cold, windy and damp, the next week is set to be a scorcher! Saturday was almost a perfect weather day…
It was a much quieter day in Birmingham on Wednesday with the first quartet of second round matches. Thursday’s schedule looks great although i’m not sure I will get to watch much of it as it’s tennis night and probably my last one for a while with all the tennis festivities coming! This will likely…
Tuesday is always the busiest day in Birmingham with the majority of first round matches on the schedule. It was also eventful over in ATP world where Andy Murray made his comeback to the tour against Nick Kyrgios in Queens. I did watch quite a bit of that match which was bizarre on many levels!…
The main draw for the 2018 Nature Valley Classic started on Monday. I’m still not fully into the tennis having missed most of the tennis at work and then a bit of evening baking and watching the football. This post is a sweeping summary of Monday’s action. Hopefully there will be a bit more to…
MTB is back for four weeks of grass court tennis as the season moves to the UK. I’d actually hoped to cover some of Nottingham but had a busy week at work. I had to do a presentation at work on Thursday and spent most of my free time preparing and worrying about it. Then…
