Johanna Konta and Heather Watson were both in third round action at the Aegon International in Eastbourne on a hectic, Thursday. Over on Court 4, Watson secured back-to-back top 20 wins with a 6-4 6-3 win over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Konta was on Centre Court against the French Open champion, Jelena Ostapenko – this was a…
Thursday was another busy, busy day at the 2017 Aegon International in Eastbourne. It started with one of my few sightings of Jelena Ostapenko as I followed her into the grounds! There were seven matches up at 10:30am on the schedule with only one WTA match – therefore, it was Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Lauren Davis for…

After a brief break to catch up on photos, I headed back out to Court 5 to watch Timea Bacsinszky’s first singles match since her semi-final run at Roland Garros. The Swiss player was taking on Peng Shuai. While twice up a break in the first set, Bacsinszky couldn’t consolidate either time. Overall, it was…
There was plenty of tennis on show at the 2017 Aegon International in Eastbourne on Wednesday. However, it came to a disappointing end with light drizzle halting play from about 5pm leaving another jam-packed schedule for Thursday. For the second straight day, I began with Simona Halep vs. Duan Ying-Ying on Court 1. The match…
The weather forecast didn’t look so promising this morning and sadly, it was accurate with almost a complete wash-out. By the time play was cancelled at 5pm, it was absolutely bucketing it down! There was a little bit of play this morning – I was on Court 1 for the the number two seed and…
Caroline Wozniacki and Naomi Osaka will meet each other in an enticing second round match at the Aegon International in Eastbourne. While the pair are scheduled fourth on Court 1 on Tuesday, it is very likely the match will not be played due to the weather so hence an opportunity to preview the match! Osaka…
As the rain has already arrived on Tuesday it gives me the chance to catch up on the blog and share some of my favourite photos from the last few days at the Aegon International. If you are interested in my album of photos (still so many more to process!) then head to the Moo’s…
Monday was All-Access Hour with the players so a very busy day. I’d opted to watch the matches on the outside courts and skip the first few press conferences – watching tennis is always my priority and it was such a lovely day. When I found out that Petra had a press conference scheduled, I…
After two cold and windy days, the sun came out on Monday for a glorious day at the 2017 Aegon International in Eastbourne. Dare I say that it was actually warm! This could all change on Tuesday and Wednesday with the miserable looking forecast but i’m in a good mood so I will stick with…
