22 m. ago Tatjana Maria shocks Amanda Anisimova to win Queen’s Club women’s singles final – as it happened

Tatjana Maria, a qualifier, beat Amanda Anisimova, the number eight seed, in straight sets to win the first women’s tournament at Queen’s since 1973Ready play.Apparently Anisimova was practising this morning and had someone hitting slices at her. That makes sense, but it won’t be the same as what’s in store for her on court this afternoon. Thing is – and as I type, there’s another “slice and dice” – the match may, in fact, be decided by how her excellence on the return matches up with Maria’s excellence on serve. Continue reading...

1 hour ago Kathy Lette looks back: ‘Older women are invisible, so I make sure to do something outrageous every day’

The author on her love for Spike Milligan, the furore over Puberty Blues, and why being middle-aged is greatBorn in 1958 in Sydney, Kathy Lette burst on to Australia’s literary scene in 1979 with Puberty Blues. Co‑written with Gabrielle Carey, the irreverent portrait of teenage girlhood became a cult classic, a film and a TV series.

She lives in London and has two children, Julius and Georgina, with her former husband, the human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson.

She’s definitely one to watch, whatever happens today.So who’s going to win? Well Anisimova is the better player with the bigger game; if she produces her best or close to it, she’ll be hard to beat. But Maria is canny and knows that, at her age, this might be her last chance to snaffle so coveted a title. If she can keep Anisimova moving, she’s a really good chance. Continue reading...
