    Good luck to 19 year old Paul Jubb from Hull at Wimbledon today . Quite an inspiring story really as he lost his parents at a young age and was brought up by his gran. Started playing tennis at pelican park in East Hull I think .

    Courtesy of Wiki...

    At the age of four Paul was spotted playing tennis at Pelican Park near his home in Hull, by tennis coach Jonny Carmichael.

    Jonny coached Paul into his teenage years where he trained at the LTA-accredited Nuffield Health Tennis Academy in Hull.

    In 2015 he won the under 16 Boys singles title at the LTA British Nationals

    He's on court 17. There's a ladies match starting shortly, he's on after that match.

    In less than 2 hours. after the current ladies singles match on Ct 17.
    ( One of them is gorgeous Goerges).
    Unless there's a thunder storm in the meantime.

    Just watching Jay Clarke on court 8. Never heard of him before, looks quite handy.

    "The Italian is ahead" said the commentator after Serena loses her first service point. in the first game of the match.

    Yet not on any of the bbc's main channels, preferring to show players we've seen umpteen times before, hell it's not even on the various red button channels either

    'When I was younger I played more football than tennis. I was pretty good. I think there was a bit of interest from Hull City to go and have trials but I never ended up going because I didn't want to stop tennis,' said Jubb, who is actually a Liverpool fan.

    What a ****.
