Talk:J. P. R. Williams
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
how many times did jpr williams play in the pack for wales
[edit] Wimbledon
Is there any source for the allegation that he did NOT win junior Wimbledon? The interview with the Times states otherwise and even gives a score and an opponent for that final game. --youghal 16:10, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
I have just read JPR's authobiography, which states he DID win junior Wimbledeon. I will try to find some supporting evidence to link to. [AndyL]
Is this source sufficient? http://observer.guardian.co.uk/osm/story/0,,642497,00.html [AndyL]
The Junior Wimbledon Final in 1966 was played between a Russian and Newzealander (Korotkov vs. Farlie). Korotkov won in straight sets. Perhaps John Williams won a competition in Wimbledon at around that time, but I do not believe he has ever won an official Wimbledon title. [J]
