Looks like the editor has a very dry sense of humour.

if you’ve never been to the Nottingham Open it’s a great day out with amazing world class sport, well recommended.

I try to get a couple of days in a year and couldn't agree more. A fantastic day out and good value for money

Few highlights:

Emma came from Toronto , that must have been a hell of a boat ride , even Robin Knox-Johnston would have been envious .

Apologies if I missed something but I've not seen anything to suggest that Emma Raducanu's parents were illegal immigrants into Britain, and she's lived here since the age of two, and she started playing tennis from the age of five. On that basis she's perfectly entitled to be regarded and indeed celebrated as a British tennis player, and I dare say a fair few Romanians, Chinese and (maybe) Canadians are proud of her too.
