Manic Monday has often been regarded as the best day of the tennis calendar as the last 16 matches from women’s and men’s draws taken centre stage. In recent years, the craziness of the schedule has taken away from the occasion with so many great matches clashing with each other. I thought this year’s scheduling…
I thought it was about time that I did one of my detailed guides for Wimbledon. I’m lucky enough to live just 25 miles away from one of the four Slams and have been very fortunate over the years to visit Wimbledon. Despite being so close, every year is always a challenge trying to get…
The first week of Wimbledon is in the books and the slate of last 16 matches is all set. It was a shame that the women’s matches were so bunched together on Saturday’s schedule, much like on Manic Monday. I enjoyed my two days at Wimbledon and have two final days of holiday before heading…

I’m off to Wimbledon for the next two days (yay!) so the…

The 2019 Nature Valley International in Eastbourne concluded on Saturday. The singles final between Karolina Pliskova and Angelique Kerber promised a super climax and while there was some high-quality tennis on show, it was a one-sided finale. The focus quickly switches to Wimbledon and i’m so excited for the action to start on Monday! Previews,…

It seemed to be a mostly uneventful day that finished with a repeat of last year’s final and a thrilling third set tiebreak. I’ll likely be busy…
