Simon Felstein is based a short walk away from the spiritual home of tennis: the All England Club in Wimbledon. Originally from New Zealand, he is a multitalented sports writer who has covered tennis at the highest level for many years. His reports and features have appeared in virtually every national newspaper in the UK. A well known face on the tennis circuit, his high profile interviews are also much in demand by overseas publications. He has been closely following Tim Henman's career since the British No. 1 emerged as one to watch when still a junior.
