Tennis starlet Daniela Piani intent on learning everything from Wimbledon

The 18-year-old is competed in the girls' singles draw for the final time of her nascent career after a 7-5 6-4 defeat to Vendula Valdmannova but remains in doubles contention, where she is joining forces with good friend Brooke Black. Advertisement And with the countdown on her time in the junior circuit already begun, Piani plans to live every moment to the fullest. 'Playing at Wimbledon is completely different to every tournament,' said Piani. 'I'm grateful to be able to play. It's my last junior tournament so honestly I was hoping to give it my all and leave it out on the court and I did that. 'I could've played a little bit better but you're not going to play perfect tennis all the time. I'm just going to enjoy every moment and I was super happy that I was given the chance to play. 'I'm just trying to enjoy being on the court. 'I've got my technical stuff that I can still work on but just being able to give it my all and not let anything get to me that's outside my control. Advertisement 'It's great when you come here, no matter what point you are in a match, the crowd are always behind you.' Piani is next in action on Tuesday, where she and Black take on Czech sisters Alena and Jana Kovackova. 'I'm super excited,' added Piani. 'Me and Brooke have played loads of times together and doubles is really fun, even more so with a home crowd. I enjoy playing it and I'm super excited for it.'

Injured Thompson finally has to quit at Wimbledon
Jordan Thompson's courageous, injury-hit Wimbledon odyssey is over as the battling Australian had to finally admit defeat to his physical problems, forced to retire during a one-sided fourth-round clash with American fifth seed Taylor Fritz. The Australian No.3, barely able to move properly after he seemed to land yet another injury on No.1 Court, finally had to call it a day at 6-1 3-0 down on Sunday, his dream of reaching his first grand slam quarter-final shattered. "Not the way I wanted to go through, I was excited to play Jordan today, I was excited to play good tennis," Fritz told the No.1 Court crowd. Taylor Fritz advances to the quarter-finals of The Championships 2025 after Jordan Thompson is forced to retire.#Wimbledon — Wimbledon (@Wimbledon) July 6, 2025 "It's sad ... he's been battling out here, playing five-setters, I respect him for coming out ... I feel bad for him and I hope he gets better." Thompson, who had feared he may have to withdraw even before the first round, had almost miraculously battled through two five-setters while struggling with a debilitating sacroiliac joint problem in his back and yet somehow still managed to reach the last-16. But his season-long injury woes finally caught up with him against the merciless Fritz when, after a reasonable start, he appeared to suffer a thigh problem while stretching for a ball late in the fourth game. From then, moving stiffly, Thompson struggled to get down low to cope with the American's flashing shots and he looked increasingly forlorn. He glanced up to his player's box which featured Davis Cup captain Lleyton Hewitt, as he found himself being outclassed in a first set that lasted just 21 minutes while rain from a storm outside lashed against the court roof. Thompson had an eight-minute medical time-out off-court after Fritz raced into a 3-0 lead in the second set, but it was clearly only delaying the inevitable. On the resumption, when one more forehand winner flashed past the Australian, it left him shaking his head and going to the net to offer his hand to Fritz. His dream clash under the roof, as a storm raged outside, in his ninth Wimbledon had lasted only 41 minutes. It's possible now that Thompson may even decide to give the rest of the season a miss, such has been the litany of injuries the 31-year-old has suffered this year. Fritz will go on to meet No.17 seed, Russian Karen Khachanov, who defeated Polish outsider Kamil Majchrzak 6-4 6-2 6-3.
