Jack and Jodie - Amazon runners-up supported by Andy Murray

Posted on 06th Dec 2019

 

We LOVE to watch our former Academy juniors continue to succeed and achieve.

 

We are incredibly proud of Jack and Jodie who were runners up in the inaugural Amazon Prime Video Future Talent Award, supported by Andy Murray. The winners were Jack Draper and Emma Radacanu.

 

This bi-annual award offers financial support to the UK's most promising tennis players, with three-time Grand Slam champion Murray ready to offer advice and support which both Jack and Jodie will now enjoy.

 

Andy Murray said, "Anything we can do to help the young talent in this country is hugely valuable. I know how sport can inspire others and it’s only by creating winners of tomorrow that we’ll be able to continue to drive

grassroots sport in this country"

 

Tim Henman, Annabel Croft, and Andy Murray made up the award selection committee, with additional input from from the LTA through Anne Keothavong, the GB Fed Cup captain.

 

A huge congratulations to you both from us all at the Club!
