A young tennis player from Ealing will get a chance to play at the Wimbledon Championships after claiming the U-14 Grass Court National Championships. Mika, in Grade 8, will now get a chance to play with some of the biggest young talents around the globe.

Mika will also represent Great Britain at the European Summer Cup, organized by Tennis Europe. The achievement included both singles and doubles victories in Gloucestershire.

Mika describes a memorable win

The youngster will now move to the All England Club later this month with this victory. Mika said, “I received a wild card for invitational Championships that will take place at Wimbledon during the adult championships. To qualify for that event players had to win nationals in different countries or win the international at Roehampton that I am playing this week.”

ATP removes ranking points from Wimbledon

The All-England Club has decided to ban Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in Wimbledon this year. This was made due to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. However, the controversial call was not supported by both the ATP and WTA.

As a result, the Grand Slam at SW19 will not have any ranking points for any player part of the main draw. While this could see major names missing this year, soon-to-be World No. 1 Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev will not get a chance to feature in any capacity.
