I watched Raducanu win her match yesterday. She played some wonderful tennis and looked very confident at her first Wimbledon. A very bright personality and so lovely to see how much she enjoyed the occasion. Her post match interview was a delight. Hope she continues to do well, gets good A Level results and stays 'grounded'. She studied at Newstead Wood, (same as Dina Asher Smith,) it is a school for very clever girls. She will get very good results.

Watch if you have the opportunity and/or the inclination. She has a delightful personality, but a tough opponent and only a slim chance of winning.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Haven't seen any news yet about the actual problem though. Mind you, she faced a tough, experienced opponent.
