Re: Wimbledon 2008

Well done Laura Robson, youngest player in Junior Wimbledon & she's won the Girls' Singles title...

Link

Will she end up like Mauresmo, Austin & Hingis or Annabel Croft?

Let's hope for her she gets Hingis' tennis brain, Mauresmo's game, Annabel's looks and Austin's... errrrm. Hmm, let's just stick with those 3.

Indeed - although I hope she stays with the game longer than Croft.

What a composed and focussed attitude she had yesterday compared to her opponent: Slovakian Romana Tabakova, and a seemingly very pleasant lass too.

Re: Wimbledon 2008

When the ladies can produce a final like the one we've just had they deserve equal prize money.

Two great sportsmen!

Two great competitors!

What a match!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
