Show Notes

Lucy Shuker is one of the most successful wheelchair tennis players the UK has ever produced.

A veteran of three Paralympics and a bronze medalist at two of them, she's also reached the finals at Wimbledon and the Australian Open - in fact, she's a regular at all the Grand Slams - and is a near-constant part of the world's Top 5 rankings as both a singles and doubles player.

We've wanted to have Lucy on the pod for a while - and now we've finally made it happen, it really doesn't disappoint!

From how she got back into sport again after her accident, to falling in love with a woman; from the moment Lucy won her first Paralympic medal, to her hopes for what will be a fourth consecutive Paralympics, this is an interview that will stick with you for a long, long time - and we really think you'll enjoy it.
