Wimbledon will host its first ever wheelchair tennis singles competition this week and Scotland World number 3 player, Gordon Reid, will be looking to reach his third Grand Slam singles final of the year. The recently selected ParalympicsGB athlete said,
“When you look at the field and who’s here, it’s pretty much the top eight players in the world in both events. There’s no such thing as an easy match,” said Reid. “For me, I’m playing Nico, who I played first round at Roland Garros. I have had a pretty good record against him recently. But nothing’s guaranteed. As our first time playing singles on grass, it’s going to be, I think, who adapts quickest, who comes out fast.”
