Biography[edit]

A right-handed player, Jones is originally from Southampton and was one of the world's top juniors. She made the 1982 French Open junior semi-finals and was a junior quarter-finalist at Wimbledon in the same year.

On the professional tour, Jones had her breakthrough in 1981 when as a 17-year old she had a first round win over Rosalyn Fairbank in Brighton, then took former French Open champion Mima Jaušovec to three sets in her next match.[1]

In 1982, while still competing in junior events, she played in the main draws of the French Open, Wimbledon and US Open.

Jones and her coaching partner Mandy Franks were the joint winners of the LTA Coach of the Year award for 2001.[2]
