Welcome
Welcome to the June edition of the BTM newsletter. Andy Murray has made it to number 3 in the world and had his most successful French Open to date by reaching the quarter finals. In Warsaw Anne Keothavong became the first British woman since 1983 to reach the semi-finals of a WTA tour clay court event.
Meanwhile James Ward won his first Challenger event in Sarasota and as a result has won the AEGON Player of the month award. Read James' recent interview with BTM.
If you are heading to the grass court events in Britain this summer, pop along to the BTM Trailer and you can get your BTM card scanned to earn you extra TeamCard points which you can use to purchase products in the British Tennis online shop. The trailer will also be hosting special cooking demonstrations from NTC chef Alex Boyd, Player Signings and the LTA Psychologist Roberto Forzoni will hopefully be on hand to answer questions you have too.
The AEGON Trophy is hosting BTM Clinics this Saturday (6th June) which are free if you show your BTM card. If you want to attend, meet at the BTM Trailer at 10.00am, and you can watch the Ladies singles final afterwards.
This month Lucozade Sport are offering you the chance to win two tickets to the AEGON International Final in Eastbourne. Read on for more details.
