Thank you, @lucy_shuker 🩶

Lucy’s incredible career comes to an end at the Wheelchair tennis finals

Her story on court has been nothing short of remarkable, She is a five-time Wimbledon doubles finalist, a four-time Australian Open doubles finalist, a silver medallist and two-time bronze medallist at the Paralympic Games. She also won seven World Team Cup medals for Great Britain (three silver and four bronze) and ends her career with 100 doubles titles.

Lucy reached a career-high of world No.3 in doubles and No.5 in singles as British No.1, and arguably her biggest doubles title came at the 2016 Wheelchair Tennis Masters alongside legendary Dutch star Diede De Groot.

In 2023, she was awarded the British Empire Medal for services to sport and at the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games, she was given the honour of being a flag bearer for the ParalympicsGB team.

What a career. What a competitor.
