Liverpool tennis player Neal Skupski is a two-time Wimbledon mixed doubles champion and current world number one. His path to the top has seen him win countless ATP tour events, play Davis Cup for Great Britain and, in his early career, proudly play alongside his brother Ken Skupski. A scouser born and bred, Skupski grew up in Allerton and moved to the United States to complete his education and polish his tennis skills. His ambition has and always been to win the men's mix doubles at Wimbledon and he hopes to do that in 2023 with his partner Wesley Koolhof. Skupski was speaking to Olympic Taekwondo medallist Bianca Cook and former BBC Sports reporter Paul Garrity at David Lloydd in Knowsley, Liverpool.
