Laura Robson's match may have been a first-rounder but she's just beaten Angelique Kerber 4-6, 7-6, 6-3. Not just a victory, but a comeback - mental toughness isn't a lost art in the homeland after all.
Another thing, 2008 Wimbledon junior champ Robson is 17 - so Dan Cox, 20, James Ward, 21, Heather Watson, 19 and Daniel Evans, 21, all take note. The bar has just been officially raised.
And the prize for the youngster? A second-round meeting with Maria Sharapova on Court No.1 tomorrow.
