Breakwell out to inspire on courts of Roland Garros

Breakwell, who is ranked 46 in the world and second in Britain, will team up with experienced world number 15, Lucy Shuker, who claimed Paralympic silver at the the Tokyo Games in 2021.

Shuker, a three-time doubles medallist, will be competing in her fifth Paralympic Games at the age of 44.

For Derbyshire's Breakwell, who trains at Loughborough University, her appearance on the famous courts of Roland Garros which usually host the French Open will also be a first.

"It still feels a bit like imposter syndrome because it has been something I have been working towards for so long," she said.

"This is my very first Paralympics and my focus when I'm there is to soak up every single bit of it and enjoy it as it is a new experience.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm still as competitive as always and I will want to push myself to try win as many matches as possible but I want to enjoy every moment."
