Let us know your favourite moments from the Lexus Wrexham Open 2025!

The Lexus Wrexham Open 2025 ended with a Welsh Fairytale as Mimi Xu took home both the Single's and Double's titles.

It was an incredible week displaying some of the top women's tennis and the finals were no different.

Join Rose as she wraps up the week by chatting to Mimi and Ella after the Double's Final to hear their thoughts on the week and as they look ahead to next week in Glasgow.

Beth Heath, from Shropshire Festivals, chats through the week's events and describes the success of the tournament and how the community of Wrexham have shown so much passion towards it.

Lastly, commentator Alex Hyman delves deeper into both finals and analyses how Mimi was able to win the double at the Lexus Wrexham Open 2025.

The final day of the Lexus Wrexham Open is upon us and we have what many would describe as the perfect final - Mika Stojsavljovic vs Mimi Xu.

The two teenagers will take to the stage at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre this afternoon and battle for the trophy.

We spoke to both players to hear their thoughts following their semifinals and looking ahead to their final today.

We also chat to commentator Alex Hyman to get his views ahead of today's match and to get some analysis from the two semifinals he commentated for.

First, we chat to Rebecca from Meet Me in the Morning coffee horsebox as she joins the Lexus Wrexham Open team and keeps everyone caffeinated!

After a busy day at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre yesterday with five matches on the Show Court, the final four at the Lexus Wrexham Open have been decided and who would have thought at the start of the week that three British players would be playing in the semifinals!

Mimi Xu was triumphant over the last remaining seeded player Harmony Tan and will take on fellow Brit Lily Miyazaki who won a fought hard from a set down to Jana Otzipka.

The second semifinal is between the sixteen year old Mika Stojsavljevic and Elena Malygina which is set to be a match filled with power strikes and extended rallies.

But before all this, listen to yesterday's recap with many guests involved at the Lexus Wrexham Event including an exciting visit from Jack Sargeant who is from Welsh Government and is the Minister for Culture, Skills, and Social Partnership.

The quarter finals have been decided following a packed day at the Lexus Wrexham Open with four British players making it through. They aren't playing each other meaning that we could have an all British semi final line up too!

In the second round, Lily Miyazaki had a dominant win over the top seed Jessika Ponchet in straight sets, so we chatted to her later on in the podcast to hear how she is feeling this week.

Mimi Xu came back from a 5-1 deficit in the first set and showed determination in the second to progress through to the final eight 7-5, 7-5.

Over the day, Rose caught up with different people throughout the day including Kirsty, supervisor at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre and Katie O'Brien who is supporting all of the British players but particularly Mimi Xu and is so excited about how well she is playing this week.

The first round is now completed and we're down to the final sixteen competing for the Lexus Wrexham Open title. There are still five Brits left in the draw.

Tuesday saw big comeback wins for Mimi Xu and Lily Miyazaki and Rose caught up with Elle McDonald after her straight sets victory against the in form Alicia Dudeney.

Yesterday evening was The Tennis Podcast Live at the Grove Park Theatre so we spoke to Matt Roberts and David Law straight after they walked off the stage following a near sell out performance.

We caught up with a volunteer too to hear a different perspective of the tournament and there's the usual analysis from the onsite commentary team working for BBC iPlayer and the Tennis Channel.

The main draw kicked off today with many Brits taking the stage at the Lexus Wrexham Open. But before all of the tennis started, Rose went along to the Business Leaders Breakfast at the Ramada Plaza Wrexham to hear some of the inspiring speeches. This included Oli Patrick, host of the Energy Equation Podcast - part of the High Performance Podcast Group - who gave an engaging speech about improving our wellbeing.

A full packed day at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre followed so we chatted to commentator Alex Hyman to hear his thoughts on the first day of the main draw.

Lastly, we spoke to Mimi Xu following her first round doubles match win and she showed her appreciation of playing in front of a home crowd.

Wrexham Ready now goes out daily as the Lexus Wrexham Open tournament is underway.

Join Rose as we head to Net World Sports Sponsors and Players Party which was kindly sponsored by Ramada Plaza Wrexham and Lanyon Bowdler.

We get the first reaction to the draw and chat to many of the different guests who attended, including Iain Bates, Baroness Amanda Sayter president of Tennis Wales, and Sandi Procter LTA President.

Join Rose for a different style podcast featuring a round table style conversation with BBC 5 Live commentator, Abigail Johnson, and tournament promoter, Dave Courteen.

There is a reflection on previous versions of the Lexus Wrexham Open before we elicit Abigail's expert knowledge to discuss the British players who will be gracing the courts at the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre. There is some analysis of the other stand out players on the acceptance list. There are some great stories as gracing the courts at Wrexham, in just nine days time, will be the player who ended Serena Williams career at Wimbledon, and an Italian who has beaten current world number one, Aryna Sabalenka, at the US open.
