Great weekend at 18u county cup with these boys🎾 #hantsiowtennis

Off to the finals🎾🎾🎾

Feels good to be competing again. Had a good few days at the British Tour in Somerset, making it past the qualies and into the second round. Felt like I've made huge improvements over the past couple of months, mentally especially, but I couldn't quite get the win today. Back to London and back to the drawing board now 💪🏼🎾#liveandlearn #backtowork #restandrecover #tenniscourt #tennistour #britishtennis #aegonbritishtour #wilsontennis #niketennis

Taylor had a tough 3-setter (7-6(4), 3-6, 3-6)! Coming short in the last round, competed exceptionally well! Enjoy your week off & we'll see you Monday for training 💪🎾 #Taunton #BritishTour #tennis #competing
