Gordon Reid Caricature

Another Australian Open star Gordon Reid who was born in Alexandria close to where I grew up is in the Australian Open final of wheelchair singles and doubles.

If you like tennis star caricatures you should check out my recent version of Johanna Konta as well.

Johanna Konta Caricature

Caricature of Sydney born British tennis star Johanna Konta the 'female Jason Bourne' of many passports (British, Australian, Hungarian) who had an amazing 2016 Australian Open run to the semi final of the women's singles until she was knocked out by Germany's Kerber.

Her success however brought out plenty of comment about her nationalities which lead to her labelling herself as the female Jason Bourne
