ACTIVATION ZONE
We had a great time in the Activation Zone with Jay Clarke visiting us! We had a fun Q&A session, games of corn hole and even a 4 v 1 tennis match. Our Activation Zone is a fantastic place to get children inspired by tennis and meeting the professionals.
OFF COURT

LEYLA’S LOWDOWN
Mimi Xu is the last Brit standing in the Lexus Birmingham Open! The 17 year old pulled off a fantastic comeback win over Katarzyna Kawa to reach the quarter-finals. This week’s tournament has marked Xu’s debut at a WTA 125 event and she’s been incredible.
Heartbreak for Heather Watson as she showed her trademark grit in a match lasting over two and a half hours. Despite her fighting spirit, she narrowly missed out on what could have been an all-British quarter-final clash.
Linda Fruhvirtova continues her impressive form on grass, playing with confidence and controlled aggression. She proved too strong for Jodie Burrage today, securing her spot in the next round.
