The women’s event at Queen’s is scheduled to take place next year and is expected to feature some of the top female players from around the world.

Robson’s participation in the tournament will undoubtedly be a source of inspiration for aspiring young tennis players, both male and female.

Overall, the return of the women’s game to Queen’s is a positive step towards achieving greater gender equality in the world of tennis.
