National Champions – Women’s Singles

Ladies’ day today with details of all the Women’s Singles Champions at the National Championships, formerly called the English Closed. The first championships were held in January 1960.

There are very few original presentation photographs and many have been scanned from magazines. If anyone has any pictures of the Women’s Singles, or indeed any other event, I would love to hear from you. My contact details are: [email protected]
