Laura Robson - British Tennis Player

[RM-Taylor]

Do we have a future world number 1 here?

Winning the girls singles title at Wimbledon, and now all but through to the quarter-finals of the Australian Open girls singles.

British tennis is looking up

I am not sure that the junior events are a decent indicator really. Certainly when it comes to female tennis.

 

[HseagullsH]

Yes she certainly looks it. Juniors generally don't prove anything, especially as the girls peak so early, that many juniors are instead playing in the main event.

But she certainly has a chance as long as she doesn't burn out, she is already full time at the National tennis centre at Roehampton, having given up school.

[Gazwag]

Isn't she Australian?

Technically, Mum & Dad are both, she moved here when she was 6, so still waiting for an English B&B player

 

[Franks Wild Years]

she's no Sharapova, but not bad..

She's got two bats ! No wonder she's winning.

Heather Watson, is also through to the quarter finals. From Guernsey so a bit closer to home than Laura. However, both flying the flag for the UK.

Isn't she about 15?

She is, that is why she is in the girls singles

Heather Watson, is also through to the quarter finals. From Guernsey so a bit closer to home than Laura. However, both flying the flag for the UK.

I know, 2 out the 8 in the quarter-finals are British. Hope they can both progress through to the semi-finals.

Heather Watson (taller one)

 

[ATFC Seagull]

Correct me if I am wrong, but is this not like what might happen if Albion had a really great youth team and everyone got carried away with how bright the future was, and then when it doesn't materialise everyone...ahh hang on a minute.

Didn't materialise? We've had some world class players come out of our youth system. Are you forgetting Joe Gatting?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

sorry - attack of remorse

 

[Lady Whistledown]

She gives the Daily Mail sportswriters something to get excited about, that's about it for now.
