Cameron Norrie takes 'ace' train to Wimbledon training
It comes as today's draw means that the British number three will play Roberto Bautista Agut on Monday 30th June for his first match of the Championship. Seasoned campaigner Norrie, 29, has endured a difficult couple of years and before the French Open, had progressed past the third round of a Grand Slam on just a solitary occasion since reaching the Wimbledon semi-finals back in 2022. But he showed signs of his old best in Paris by lowering the colours of Daniil Medvedev, the world No.11 and 2021 US Open champion, in a battle of the baseliners to reach the last-16 and send him towards SW19 with a renewed streak of confidence. Surprised onlookers saw Norrie boarding the train at London Waterloo, where he was sporting his tennis whites and carrying his bag to training. On board, he was spotted reviewing the Wimbledon draw, announced earlier today, on his phone. As he arrived at Wimbledon station, he took selfies with excited fans. Norrie took 'The Ace', an SWR Arterio train named after the Wimbledon Championships, and one of the five Arterios named in celebration of the many sporting locations along the SWR network. Tens of thousands of excited tennis fans are set to take SWR services to the 2025 Championships at Wimbledon, as the All England Club opens its doors to the tennis world once again.

Bernard Tomic could head to US Open qualifying after winning run in Spain ends
Bernard Tomic will jump to 214 in the world and likely head to US Open qualifying after his first ATP tour event in four years ended in the second round in Spain. But as Tomic lost, teen star Maya Joint took down former US Open champion Emma Raducanu and Aussie teenager Emerson Jones took a big step towards the main draw of Wimbledon. Tomic made the main draw of an ATP event for the first time in four years at the Mallorca Open, taking down compatriot Rinky Hijikata in the opening round to knock over another milestone in his comeback from the lower reaches of world tennis. But the former world No.17 found the going a bit tougher against Spanish veteran Roberto Bautista Agut, who knocked him over in straight sets on the grass courts, having last week reached the semi-finals at the Queen's Club Championship. âœ'ï¸� Cuatro veces en Mallorca ✅ Cuatro veces en CF 🇰🇸 @BautistaAgut se impone a Tomic por 6-3, 6-3 y avanza a cuartos de final. 🎥 @TennisTV | #MallorcaChampionships — Mallorca Championships (@MallorcaChamps) June 25, 2025 Having jumped from 248 in the rankings by making the final 16 in Spain, Tomic, 32, who skipped Wimbledon qualifying given he was waiting on someone to drop out to get a start, looks set to try to instead earn a main draw spot at Flushing Meadows when qualification begins. As Tomic made steady moves forward, so to did Australian teenager Joint, who beat British star Raducanu in front of her home crowd at the Eastbourne International to ramp up her Wimbledon preparations. Joint, 19, is already in the main draw at Wimbledon and was beaming after her three-set win, having lost the opening set. 'Today was really tough, there was a lot of up and downs, lot of momentum switches, but I'm really glad that I was able to tough it out in the end,' she said. 'I'm really glad I was able to win this one. I definitely try to hit the lines. Doesn't always work, so I'm glad it worked today.' In Wimbledon qualifying, 16-year-old Jones was among a slew of Australian winners, with Talia Gibson, Priscilla Hon, Alex Bolt, Li Tu and James McCabe all booking places in the last round of qualifying. Jones has only played one grand slam main draw, the Australian Open, while Bolt is looking to do what he did last year, having started as an alternate in qualifying before making his way to the main draw. 'My game style really suits the surface,' he said. 'It's just the love of the game, the love of the grass. I feel at home on this stuff.'
