Joanna Garland’s profile exploded at AO 2026 when she won through to the final of the 1 Point Slam at Rod Laver Arena, beating Alexander Zverev, Nick Kyrgios, Maria Sakkari and Donna Vekic along the way. She sat down with Viv and Matt to relive what was one of her greatest professional tennis experiences, and how things shifted for her in the aftermath. In this candid interview, Garland also shares stories from developing her game in Chinese Taipei, how she’s come to be based in the Netherlands, and her connection to the UK, where she was born. And that’s where she’ll be this week, competing in Wimbledon qualifying as she chases her dream of playing in the main draw at the All England Club, and where she hopes to take another step closer to a top-100 debut.
