Hi. I did a question and answer session with Heather Watson last week. I've written an article about her and published it on my blog with the question and answers, have a look.

Womens British tennis is looking up after years in the international wilderness. There is a long way to go before Britain can get into the elite group, but in Heather Watson, we have a player who has the desire and talent to make a real impression on the WTA tour for years to come.

I love your tennis blog, Laurie! Very thoughtful analysis, and of course I happen to agree with all your tastes and preferences.

Thanks for that.

For as long as I'v been watching tennis, I don't recall ever seeing a British player winning a WTA event. It will be good if Heather Watson can put herself into contention to win, and win WTA events over the coming years; that would really be progress for British tennis. And Laura Robson as well.

Great article. Thanks for it

Not to be too nit picky but the last player to reach 3rd roudn at wimbledo was Baltacha in 2002

At least the English have Andy Murray

Good point. Did Sam Smith make the 4th rd in 1999?

Thanks everyone for the nice replies, much appreciated :yeah:

I'm hoping to come up with some more good stuff over the coming months and hopefully one or two more question / answer sessions with a few more players.

Just out of curiosity I wonder when was it the last time that a Brit won a WTA singles event?
