HALESOWEN'S Jordanne Whiley has scooped a quartet of awards in the wake of her Gland Slam winning exploits this season.

The British number one, who is set to join a host of other international stars at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year in Glasgow on Sunday, was named Female Player of the Year, voted Players’ Player of the Year by her peers and also received the Jim Cochrane Award in recognition of her outstanding contribution to her sport in Great Britain at the British Wheelchair Tennis Awards in Gloucester, which were presented alongside this year’s National Championships.

After ending her season with a career-best Masters performance, Whiley and doubles partner Yui Kamiji stayed in London for the Lawn Tennis Writers Association Awards at Wimbledon, where Whiley was again honoured with a special presentation after becoming the first British tennis player in history to win a calendar year Grand Slam.

She said: “Each awards ceremony I get invited to after what’s happened to me and Yui this year, I have to keep pinching myself, but I want to do it all again in 2015 and I want to win my first Grand Slam singles title, starting with the Australia Open at the end of next month.”

“That’s the goal and I couldn’t do any of it without the support of family, friends, coaches and, of course, UK Sport and National Lottery funding and the Tennis Foundation Programme, so I‘m extremely grateful to everyone who’s helped me get this far.“
