We're halfway through Wimbledon at the time of writing, and it's had its fair share of drama already, most notably Emma Raducanu pulling out of the mixed doubles at the last minute to deny Andy Murray a final send-off. There's a week left, with plenty more notable moments undoubtedly on the way.

My favourite tennis player of all time is Anna Kornikova! Legit had never had any interest or watched tennis until she appeared on the scene , blew up and got her own video game which is when I found out about her and tennis!
This was back in like 99/00 when games didn’t need to be ground breaking they just had to be fun and this game was, especially cuz you could pick it up for cheap!
She never won a singles title but she reached No. 8 in the world in 2000 which isn’t bad! Dare I say it she was possibly way more popular than a lot of the better players back then which was good for brining new viewers to the sport! Also she achieved more success playing doubles, where she was at times the world no1 with her teammate who I can’t Remeber her name, I think it was martina somone?
Anyways she retired early after some bad injuries which possibly stoped her reaching even greater heights in the tennis world! But who cares right when you have your own videogame from Namco!? 😜

My favourite tennis player of all time has to be Serena Williams! 23 Grand Slams in her career and many Wimbledon wins, but it's her losses that show how passionate she is about the sport and how well she bounces back, having won against her sister as well as lost to her in the Wimbledon finals as well as played and won alongside her in doubles finals too.
Everything she does feels like she puts all her energy and effort into it and her strength, athleticism, heart and personality are inspiring to any tennis fan, regardless of gender or age!

For me it has to be Andy Murray, The British (scottish when he loses lol) tennis player had an absolutely incredible sporting tennis moment I watched live when he won wimbledon in 2013 against Novak Djokovic, I remember being in a hotel and watching this on a tiny TV and the final game was soo dramatic, he faced a couple of break points but he won them all, so tense when there was about 3 or 4 championship points! my heart was absolutely racing, the dramatic back and forth made the game so much better and It inspired my actually to pick up a tennis racket and I played tennis for many years throughout the summer because of this moment. Looking back it actually inspired my a lot as Tennis is one of my favourite sports to play

I’m not the biggest tennis watcher but I’ve got to say Serena Williams because she is such an inspiration in and out of the sport 🙌 she has done so much with her career and is still killing it going forward 🥰

Whilst I was growing up and still had more of an interest in tennis my favourite was always the British number one at the time, Tim Henman. He was a great player who had been the best British player we had in many years it's just a shame he never really achieved more.
