After hanging up her racquet, she transitioned into the commentary box, captivating audiences as a presenter and pundit for major networks including Amazon Prime, BBC, ESPN USA, Eurosport, and Sky Sports.

And she will be reliving some of her memories at Eden Court Theatre when her tour stops off in Inverness on October 22.

In what will be her first ever theatre tour, Annabel will invite the Inverness audience behind the scenes of the world’s greatest tennis tournaments, sharing unforgettable moments from her career including interviewing legends like Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic.

Fans are being promised an “unmissable experience for tennis and dance enthusiasts everywhere”!
