Elena Baltacha

Awful news yesterday that GB's former number 1 has liver cancer at age if 30.

She's had such a tough time with an already terminal liver condition but showed great fight and attitude to have breached the top 50 in her career.

I was fortunate enough to meet Bally and her then husband to be NiƱo Severino in La Manga a few years back.

Genuinely nice people, she has massive fight in front if her, I can't think of anyone who would fight harder.

Good luck Bally!

Feel sick to the stomach.

Elena passed away yesterday.

Only 30, had so many obstacles to overcome in her life, never ever gave up.

Lovely lovely person, inspiration to all.

RIP Bally.
