British tennis player Katie Boulter has made headlines at the Australian Open, where she discussed the pressures of playing under the scrutinizing gaze of the media and fans. Boulter, in a recent interview, expressed her thoughts on the ever-present cameras following her during matches, likening it to a ‘Big Brother’ experience. She remarked, ‘It feels a little bit strange with cameras all around, sometimes it feels as if you’re living in a reality show.’ Despite the pressure, Boulter credits her compatriot Alex de Minaur for his unwavering support, stating that his presence has been beneficial for her performance on the court. This year, Boulter has made history by becoming one of the six British players to reach the second round of the Australian Open, illustrating the growing presence of British talent in the sport. Following her triumph, she said, ‘I’m so proud to be part of a team that is doing so well, and I think it really elevates the game in the UK.’
