This week Des Lynam meets the best British tennis player since Fred
Perry - Tim Henman.
Henman lifts the lid on life on the high pressure men's
tennis circuit and talks about:
The loser tag that the British press sometimes
label him with;
The life he leads on and off the court;
His rich sporting heritage with historic Wimbledon
forebears;
His views on why there are not more quality British
tennis players in the game;
His most disappointing defeat;
What winning Wimbledon would mean to him;
His ambitions to put something back into the game after he finishes
playing.
