  1. i dont think so because britain is realy getting weaker in most of the sports


  2. NO - the only desire is to make more money off fools who think so with the OTT coverage and media hype.

  3. I don't believe so. They are putting a lot of money into it, though. It's always possible though, at least once Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic are out of the game.

  4. Yes in future it is produce wimbledon champs

    And it desires more money and confidence

  5. Nope I don't

  6. Well the problem is that tennis is not all that popular in Britain anymore. That is the reason why there are not that many high caliber players coming out from the country as in the past. The tennis federation of Britain probably do have to put in more money into the sport in order to make high quality tennis facilities for training players. Same thing is happening right now in the United States and Australia. Here is an article from the Wimbledon official website mostly talking about the decline in tennis in both Australia and the United States with a little mention of Britain.

  7. Are you referring to men or women.  In the men's there is always hope,ever since Fred Perry there has'nt been any one near enough to match him.   RogerTaylor failed....Tim Henman got a lot of support but could not do it....Greg Rusedski I thought would be the only one....now we have Andy Murray as our only hope,but he has has a few injuries and I cant imagine him to win.

  8. "What needs to change for Britain to produce future Wimbledon champs?"

    The Climate.  It's too rainy in the UK to get to play consistently outdoors.  There will never be enough indoor tennis court facilities.  It's so far north that there is very little light during the Winter months.  Compare the climate of England to that of say, Florida, or Spain.

    Plus, there are too many people and not enough tennis courts in England.
