Credit where it’s due

I don’t normally talk about the sports that receive a lot of media exposure, but I have to say that two triumphs fully deserve my attention this weekend.

“I’ll take her down …”

Brilliant - 14 year old Brit
Laura Robson, winning the Girls Wimbledon Title. That was her answer to “How do you fancy taking on the likes of Venus Williams?” Unfazed, enjoying every minute. Let’s hope they don’t ruin her with distractions and she doesn’t forget the ethos that brought her to this position. Smashing sense of humour too, check her interviews if you haven’t seen them - that quote above was one of the best.

“Hee hee hee hee!”

Lewis Hamilton’s excited giggle on the radio to his team, after a stirling performance at Silverstone. Expressed more than any words uttered by the ‘armchair experts!’
