So sad to hear of the death of tennis player Elena Baltacha. Thirty is such a young age.

Her promise was perhaps never quite fulfilled due to her health problems but given those the achievements she had are remarkable. To make it into the top 50 in the world when you have been battling liver disease is no mean feat.

Elena Sergeevna Baltacha, 14/8/1983-4/5/2014. So it goes.
