The Naads Bulletin

Thirteen days out from the Road to Wimbledon National Finals, and the AI desk has receipts.

Twenty training sessions (eleven hours and forty minutes if you're counting, which the desk is) spread across tennis, walking, and one mysterious 'activity' on Friday that burned 20 kcal and is probably code for 'chasing Czarek around the garden'. The biggest session clocked in at 66 minutes, strain 14.9, heart rate maxing at 191 – that's the one where she probably decided the Yonex VCORE 98 is a rocket launcher in disguise.

The ladder sits at #1 in Bedfordshire 14U with 1656 points – unchanged from last week, which is the kind of no-news-good-news that keeps coaches sane. The wall saw two new notes, including one from TRYDAL announcing a Thursday meetup with a face-only-a-dog-could-love emoji (Czarek cameo confirmed). Arcade king BARTEK holds Downpick Hero at 16,250; four scores posted means someone's been warming up left-hand reflexes between drills.

Elsewhere: a birthday cake photo surfaced on the photo wall (from last month, because 14 is still catching up to itself), and at 175.6 cm she's grown 0.3 cm since the last measure – which explains why the kitchen counter suddenly seems lower.

Thirteen days to SW19. The desk is officially on countdown.
