American Madison Keys won her first grand slam this year, winning the Australian Open in January. She’ll be eyeing up her second grand slam at Wimbledon and a win at Queen’s could put her in a good position. Keys has previous success on grass from a 2023 Eastbourne win.

South Africa’s batting hero Aiden Markram has taken longer than expected to deliver on his promise, but a match-winning century against Australia in the World Test Championship final is being hailed as the biggest in the country’s cricketing history.

German qualifier Tatjana Maria says it is a "dream come true" to reach the Queen's final, where she will meet world number 15 Amanda Anisimova.
