MEET LUCY
One of Great Britain’s most accomplished wheelchair tennis players.
After 24 years competing at the highest level of international wheelchair tennis, Lucy has announced that 2026 will be her final season on tour.
A five-time Paralympian, she helped make history at London 2012 by winning Great Britain’s first-ever women’s wheelchair tennis Paralympic medal alongside Jordanne Whiley, with the pair going on to add further medals at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
Lucy is taking everything her career has taught her — the experience, perspective, stories and insight — into a new chapter across commentary, speaking and advocacy.
CAREER HIGHLIGHTS
Lucy built a career defined by resilience, ambition and a deep passion for pushing boundaries.
Following a life-changing spinal cord injury at 21, Lucy went on to compete at the very highest level of her sport, representing Great Britain around the world and establishing herself among wheelchair tennis’s leading players.
With more than 100 international titles, career-high rankings of World No.5 in singles and World No.3 in doubles, and nine Grand Slam doubles finals, her record speaks for itself. At Paris 2024, she was selected as a ParalympicsGB flag bearer, a fitting recognition of her standing within British sport.
From making history at London 2012 to becoming a respected voice for the growth and development of wheelchair tennis, Lucy’s influence now extends far beyond the court.
