Quite a long article today on the BBC site about Johanna Konta and can she become a popular sportsperson in this country. The article considers other well know sportspeople who are/were associated with this country but not wholly British.

By the way Heather Watson's mother comes from Papua New Guines and her father from England. She was born in Guernsey.
Laura Robson's parents are Asutralian where she was born. She moved to the UK when she was 6.

Have to admit didn't know that about Bradley Wiggins - and not that it's of particular significance.
