I thought the article was utter rubbish, but I do like Phoebe very much, having met her in Cambridge and I hope she does really well.

was that the 'princess and the pauper' article? totally patronising and pap as usual...
however... whilst everyone that gets to badminton must have to put in an awful lot of effort, it does make you think that she must have worked even harder, as she has not only had to battle to get herself to the top, without masses of money... i presume she also had to battle through a great deal of prejudice on her way. good on her. and i hope she does well. it would be nice to have some positive news about travellers for once... if only to make the Daily Mail choke on their words.

OMG I agree. I think Phoebe is a fantastic rider and a very nice person. I know her from Cambridge. I still thought the DM article is rubbish, not least for not recognising the contribution from the owners of the Little Tiger and previous, The Busker.
