What connects Wimbledon’s Centre Court and Brighton & Hove Albion?

A century ago, Leslie Godfree from Brighton became the first player ever to strike a ball on that hallowed turf. Now, another Sussex star has followed in his footsteps, and gone one better.

In this episode Glenn talks to Julian Cash, the Henfield born tennis ace who hit the winning shot in the Wimbledon men’s doubles final to seal his first Grand Slam title alongside fellow Brit Lloyd Glasspool.

Julian’s rise has been nothing short of extraordinary, from season ticket holder at the Amex, to Centre Court glory in front of the world.
