Nobheads in the crowd screaming before the point was won.

Brilliant from Konta to go from a set down.

Proud day for the Aussies. When was the last time that one of their own reached the women's semi-final?

Stuff that, Budapest will be buzzing !

Proud for her. Shame she's not really British

Why do they say she's British.
She's no more British than I am Spanish.
Mind u I have been to Spain a few times

Don't be daft, she's as British as Greg Rusedski.

She moved here when she was 14 and has British citizenship.

British citizen since 2012. Of course, the fact that the name Konta doesn't appear in the Domesday Book renders any of her victories null and void, for some.

No it doesn't. She's obviously a great tennis player. Why do we feel the need to claim her for Britain though?
