UK Tour 2011 #6

After the disappointment of losing in the second round of qulaifying, Greg elected to stay on in London and train there, as there where plenty of fellow Aussies around like Ben Mitchell, James Lemke and his good mate Adam Feeney with whom he could hit. He also had the services of the AIS physiotherapist Ian Prangley who helped him with the ongoing rehabilitation and strengnthening of his injured leg. He had good accommodation at a B&B in Wimbledon and also had use of indoor courts in Sutton when it rained, as it did this summer in England. Wimbledon being Greg's second best place in the world, he was very happy.
He also got to watch the Championships of the hallowed grass courts at Wimbledon, spotted in the stands chatting to the Tennis Australia personnel watching Marinko Matosevic's 1st round match. After a week of R&R, hitting and gym, Greg departed England last Thursday bound for his next tournament, a $50k Challenger at Winetka, Chicago in Illinois.
