And finally, it has been a difficult week for many in our tennis community following the shock passing of esteemed coach Wayne Hannah.
World No.127 Lizette Cabrera shared a touching tribute:
Wayne, my childhood coach, mentor and friend. He was one of a kind. He impacted so many lives for the better and I’m so grateful to have been one of them. He always instilled so much belief in me and my dream and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for him. (1/1) pic.twitter.com/iPOuAlM2O6
