Laura Robson Wins Junior Wimbledon 2008!
Uploaded by: LaRhumba
Video Description:
14 year old Londoner Laura wins Junior Wimbledon becoming the first British Girl to win the title since 1984, knocking out the top seeded American in the first round, and a host of seeds along the way. She was also the youngest competitor in the draw.
She's an exciting, attacking left handed player hitting winners from the back of the court, with a good serve, and a hugely exciting prospect for us British Tennis fans to cheer. It was great following her progress at this year's Wimbledon, with a fairy tale ending for a change! :-)
This video, courtesy of the BBC, includes her winning moment, receiving the trophy from former champion Ann Jones on No.1 Court in front of a boisterous partisan crowd, and her amusing interview afterwards, which was very tongue in cheek! :-)
All the best to Laura for a successful career in the future, and also to her gracious Thai opponent, who played a great match, and was a super sport in playing a Brit at the home of Tennis.
A great occasion.
