Grand Slam Tennis: Done and dusted with the clay, it's time to move on to the grass!

Will Jo-Wilfried Tsonga live up to his potential?

While everyone has been focusing on the Big Four, not many have been paying attention to the fact that the Frenchman Tsonga is beginning to display some consistency at the majors. Tsonga has reached two semis and one quarter final in the last four Grand Slams. The Frenchman’s all-out attacking style suits the grass courts which is why he has reached the semis at Wimbledon two years running.

With a new coach, Roger Rasheed, by his side, Tsonga is beginning to uncork some of the potential in his game. And he has a relatively easy draw up to the quarter-finals where he could meet the big serving South African Kevin Anderson, who is playing the best tennis of his life and will be a dark horse at SW19 this year, or compatriot Benoit Paire, the flamboyant Frenchman who was picked as the future no. 2 player in the 2018 world rankings by the French newspaper L’Equipe.

From the grinding baseline slugfest in Paris, it’s time to get ready for some attacking serve and volley tennis in London. The Queen’s Club event is just the start of a four week journey that takes tennis back to its roots and culminates in the oldest and most prestigious tournament there is – The Championships at Wimbledon.
