That was really sad for Dan. I hope he gets a decent send-off at Wimbledon, and they're not stuck on an outside court.

Poor Heather, such a shame she didn’t qualify for Wimbledon. I really felt for her she seemed to be very upset afterwards 🥺

What a shame. I was surprised to read she was 34. I suppose her career must be coming to an end. Did she not get a wild card for the doubles or mixed seeing as she’s once won the mixed?

Looks like she got WC for ladies doubles with Katie, so at least that’s something. I was wondering too whether she was particularly upset as maybe she felt this could be her last chance with singles, but that’s pure speculation on my part.

I think she was just disappointed. Her match yesterday was a physical and emotional rollercoaster and it was absolutely blistering hot. She was so thrilled yesterday to win but I think she just ran out of steam today.
She is the loveliest person, after her win yesterday she stayed for ages to take numerous selfies with spectators and give everyone a bit of her time.
It'll be a sad day when she hangs up her racket.
I usually dislike the way some of our tennis players get bounced into a media job or tournament directorship but I'll make an exception for Heather. Keep her in British Tennis, she's a gem.
ETA I was at qualifying yesterday and today and I can highly recommend it. I almost prefer it to the actual tournament.

Zverev's got a pretty good draw until a potential Fritz/Draper quarter-final. Although he could get Cerundolo in the 4th round...

I just looked at H2Hs - Draper has never played Zverev before, which is surprising.

Yes, that’s exactly what I thought - I’d have hoped for second week too. Such a shame that we’ll definitely be losing one of the most watchable players in the very first round 😡
And no Carlos 😭

Hey ho - I’m sure it will still be an amazing tournament ❤🤞❤
