The Independent says THE NERVOUS EXCITEMENT that engulfed Wimbledon for Emma Raducanu’s fourth-round match last year made Court No 1 feel like a cramped elevator.

BBC Sport says EMMA RADUCANU’S agent insists the US Open champion is not being distracted by commercial interests.

BBC Sport says THE SIGNS pointed to one of the greatest players of all time slipping quietly into retirement without the farewell she deserves.

The Independent says Sue Barker will retire as presenter of the BBC’s Wimbledon coverage at the end of this year’s tournament after 30 years, the broadcaster has announced.

BBC Sport says Emma Raducanu is expected to be fit for Wimbledon after a scan showed the injury which forced her to retire at the Nottingham Open was a side strain.

BBC Sport says Rafael Nadal demonstrated once again why he is the greatest player in French Open history by beating long-time rival Novak Djokovic in a late-night thriller to reach the men’s singles semi-finals.
