Louise Hunt Skelley PLY, retired Paralympian and former wheelchair tennis player, will be a commentator at the most famous tennis tournament in the world – Wimbledon – for the 10th time. 

The former Paralympian has commentated for many tennis tournaments and at two Paralympic Games and next month Wimbledon 2025 marks a personal milestone as she will be celebrating her tenth anniversary of commentating on her home turf. 

“I cannot believe those ten years have come around so quickly. When I was first asked – while still competing – I was so humbled and so inexperienced. Now I look forward to every championships year after year and to working alongside an amazing team who embrace the sport and all of the divisions within it!” 

Louise, who lives in Wroughton and retired from professional wheelchair tennis in 2021, has tips for who to look out for in this year’s two week tournament which starts on Monday June 30. 

“The ones to watch this year include Aniek van Koot from the Netherlands! She is an accomplished tennis player, with five paralympic medals and competing in singles and doubles tournaments throughout her career. She has really come up the ranks this past year and since Paris2024, she’s now ranked as world number two. 

“Also look out for Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid who have been doubles champions many times over. With over 21 grand slam titles to their names.

“I would recommend everyone keep their eyes on this British duo because after their nail-biting success (in doubles and individually) in Paris2024 and this season so far, they are people to watch.

“Jack Draper has also had a considerable rise in his rankings this past year, and his powerful leftie style is always exciting to watch. He has reached No 5 in men’s singles and he is going from strength to strength.

“Additionally, I am looking forward to watching Katie Boulter, who at the end of last year reached her highest singles ranking of No.23. I hope this year sees her excel and I can’t wait to see what she is able to bring to the competition.”

Louise represented Great Britain in wheelchair tennis at both the London and Rio Paralympics and has won 13 senior singles and 41 senior doubles titles, with a career-high world ranking of 10. As a player, Louise appeared at Wimbledon in 2015 for the doubles event and in 2016 in both the singles and doubles event.

Today Louise is a tennis commentator, tournament director, inclusion specialist, motivational speaker, and author.
