I remember years ago she used to commentate at Wimbledon for the BBC.

'If Anna spent as much time on her tennis as she does looking in the mirror - she'd be number one in the world'

She said that (very matter of factly) about Kournikova during a match against Venus I think it was.

Her book 'Passing Shots' is one of the funniest books I have ever read. It's a riot!!

Janko Tipsarevic was two sets up in his match

Now it is two sets all, and has been broken in the fifth

Well, I'm on team Broady, and she seems to be holding herself out there so far.

Stop trying to lob the beanpole. I wonder if the post-rain heaviness of the conditions is having an effect, so many un-Aga like errors.

Third time lucky as Radwanska is broken by Stockport's brightest star Broady in the game of her life. The whole of Great Britain will know about Broady by the end of this tournament. Konta has competition. Laura Robson already knows about Naomi Broady.

I think it's a bit soon to be saying that.

Somebody called Lucy who has been commentating on tennis since Noah was a lad.

Lord no. Konta has skills, Broady is just a big serving ball-basher and that unorthodox backhand...

Brave Broady battled through the first set with big-hitting booming tennis. What a thrilling tie-break. Broady was so close to taking the set. Radwanska knows about Naomi and northern grit now.

Broady choking away the tie-break. Never in doubt.

Naomi should have had that set but what a fight back from Radwanska. 4-1 down at one point to win on the tie break.

Dom Inglot out of the doubles beaten by Marach/Martin.

Yes, I'm sure she's terrified.

Believe in Broady, Stockport's superstar breaks straight away in the second set.

I am more surprised by how badly Radwanska is playing.

I am, but what a pleasant surprise. Naomi has never played likethis before. A new star is born. Her name is Naommi Broady. She is on her way to becoming the queen of the north. And yes this is an improvement as big as the serve.

Oh no. Marion in the commentary box for the Serena match.

She makes it unwatchable. Back to Broady/Radwanska I think.
