Raducanu returns, Draper looks to pick up Murray's baton, and more key things to watch out for when Wimbledon starts on Monday.
Strawberries. Pimm's. The Hill. The Queue. And, most importantly, the world's finest players battling it out on the ultimate test of grass-court tennis.
"Being on the other side just really stung. It wasn't nice and I didn't really watch any of the tennis either.Raducanu missed the clay-court French Open to focus on being fit and ready for the British grass season - and the move looks to have paid dividends. But it feels especially cruel that Murray - a British icon who ended the nation's 77-year wait for a home men's singles champion in 2013 - has seen his hopes of a Wimbledon farewell hindered by injury.
"I'm just trying to do what I can, trying to keep progressing each day," said Murray, who has been drawn against Tomas Machac of the Czech Republic.At the start of his career, Murray emerged to pick up the baton from Tim Henman as Britain's leading men's player - and carry the nation's hopes at Wimbledon.Draper has long been seen as the heir to his idol.
