Took my first coach for a meal last night. 81yrs old and still coaching, he said he may have to stop next year as his knee is sore 😥Never met anyone so selfless, positive and generous. Also played Wimbledon. Legend #britishtenniscoahing#legacy#rolemodel
@FranLewis91@ITFTennis Must be some ideas on filling the draws. Maybe reduce the age limit and allow tennis Europe players to start earlier on their ITF journey
The J60 @ITFTennis in Edinburgh yesterday - so many ‘byes’ and two day qualifying shortened to one day - such a shame - what can be done ? Don’t want to lose the event - participation is going up ? Is it the price ? The accommodation costs ? The city tax ? #edinburgh#tennis
@Barry_Fulcher@Liambroady Yes forgot that 😂😂 working in Scotland that’s another debate re indoor courts and where they are built but your right @Barry_Fulcher - 3 indoor in Scotland - just hope the courts are full up and booming with players 🔥🤛
@marcus_buckland You ideally want to see one calf from the back (probably looks like right leg 🦵 coming round a bit early- just needs to stay side on a little longer ) nice action 👍
@coopuk could you install self service checkout tills in your Newlyn store please? (even just one) There are three tills that are never used and just one person serving on the fourth. Would just make it quicker to purchase one or two items if you don’t want to queue for 20 mins
@FlyLoganair why do you not fly to Newquay anymore and when are you are going to communicate that you are either continuing or not continuing with the service ? #loganair
@FlyLoganair Not Edinburgh to though….. I can find the information on your website. Just wondering why ? And if there are plans to re-open the route ? Thanks
Never ceases to amaze me how much junior tennis tournaments take out of you. Diet goes out of the window, sleep patterns destroyed, eat all the wrong things at the wrong time of day, facilities not great, start matches at 8pm…. Tennis is messy yet programmes try to be perfect
At the @ITFTennis event in Liverpool this week. Wondering if boys withdraw more from matches than girls ? 3 boys yesterday. Not sure if they should then be allowed to play doubles. Player welfare needs to be considered. Can’t play singles don’t play doubles ?
Hey @lpoolcouncil as a visitor to your city your parking arrangements are all over the place. I’ve asked local people where I can park and no one knows. One said the ticket inspectors just choose if they want to fine you. Appears parking on pavements is allowed 🤷 #liverpool
@scambers73@TheTennisTalker@CincyTennis Always wonder what British coaches think of this especially as so many are mentored with programmes put on to up-skill the ‘next generation’ of coaches. Obviously she works in a world where she can pick/choose but a shame for those on homegrown coaching pathways
Not bad for a non grand slam nation with a population of 60 million. Shows the importance and maybe a link of internal high level competition v ranking increase? Italy over the past 3 years on average 22 (men) and 28 (women) challenger/Senior ITF events per year #tennis
So good to have Sinner and Alcaraz carrying the torch for tennis 🎾 All the talk of padel and entertaining tennis players who just clown around and these two showing youngsters it’s ok to strive and achieve whilst being professional 👏👏
