The men's singles championship could be the most hotly contested in years. Apart from Edberg, there's the man he beat in last year's final, Boris Becker , while John McEnroe fancies his chances of another title at the age of 30. Among those still to win here are the current world champion Mats Wilander , and the two Czechs of contrasting styles,
Ivan Lendl , and the Olympic gold medallist Miloslav Mecir.

Lady Porter - the Pursuit of Power
The leader of Westminster's Conservative council,
Lady Porter, was one of a new breed of town-hall Tories, who sought to roll back the frontiers of the local state. Her flamboyant style made her one of the best-known figures in municipal politics. But Lady Porter's reputation has been in the doldrums since the row over her policy of selling Westminster's cemeteries to developers for a pittance.
Now as next year's local elections loom, Lady Porter must look to her majority.
