Six of the players currently in the top 10 of the British women’s rankings have entered this month’s ITF World Tennis Tour tournament at The Shrewsbury Club.
Marketa Vondrousova has been crowned Wimbledon ladies’ singles champion just eight months after winning both the singles and doubles titles at the ITF World Tennis Tour event at The Shrewsbury Club.
Shrewsbury Athletics Club is partnering with governing body England Athletics to run a national pilot event to get children active, which they hope will be repeated across the country.
The continued success of Shropshire tennis has been impressively recognised with a hat-trick of regional winners in the annual Lawn Tennis Association Awards.
